Doctor Dolittle leads a simple life as the village doctor in Puddleby-On-The-Marsh. But one day, with the help of his wise old parrot Polynesia, he makes an extraordinary discovery: that he can talk to animals.

As news of his talent as an animal doctor spreads, animals across the world send messages asking for his help. So he borrows a leaky old ship and, joined by a loyal animal crew including Jip (a dog), Dab Dab (a duck), and Gub Gub (an ever-hungry, cake-loving pig), embarks on a quest to cure illness, spread kindness, and better understand animals everywhere.

Hugh Lofting’s timeless classic celebrates the power of empathy and inspires audiences young and old to see the world through the eyes of animals.

This funny, exciting family musical is performed with flair and wit by Illyria in the great outdoors.
