DICK King Smith's fabulous farm yard adventure, cleverly adapted for the stage by playwright David Wood, tells the enchanting tale of lovable sheep-pig Babe.

When Farmer Hogget wins the adorable piglet at a village fair, motherless Babe is taken back to the farm to grow up amongst sheep and sheep-dogs. Under the gentle guidance of sheep-dog Fly, Babe, learns how to successfully herd sheep leading to Farmer Hogget's decision to enter him in the sheep dog trials.

Can a small pig beat a real sheep-dog and win the challenge cup?
