Enid Blyton

Noddy, Big Ears and Lashings of Controversy

Saturday 6 April, 2024 at 7:30 pm

Enid Blyton was loved by children. She sold more than 600 million books, despite all her work being banned by the BBC and many libraries and schools for more than thirty years.  She was accused of being a racist and of using such limited vocabulary that it actually hindered children’s reading progress. She had an interesting love life. She enjoyed playing golf so much that she bought a golf course near Swanage.  She died of Alzheimer’s in 1968 aged 71, mourned by millions of readers all over the world.

Liz Grand plays this remarkable and controversial woman and brings you Enid Blyton’s incredible story.

Performed by Liz Grand, written by Kit Hunter and directed by Chris Jaeger.
