Gardner and Wife Theatre presents Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus September 30-October 19. This stage adaptation of six-time Emmy Award-winner Mo Willems' best-selling book by Big
Wooden Horse Theatre Company has been thrilling children in the UK for over three years and
recently returned from a successful tour of the USA and Canada. A lively show for children 3 and
up, it is full of fun, feathers, laughter and excitement, featuring original music and lots of
audience participation!

Mr Willems was a writer and animator for Sesame Street and also created The Cartoon Network's
hit shows Sheep in the Big City and Codename: Kids Next Door. Three of his books have been
awarded the Caldecott Honor for distinguished American picture books for children: Don't Let
the Pigeon Drive the Bus! (2004), Knuffle Bunny: A Cautionary Tale (2005), and Knuffle Bunny
Too: A Case of Mistaken Identity (2008). An animated short of Don't Let The Pigeon Drive the
Bus! was also awarded the Carnegie Medal for excellence in children's video in 2010.
