My Neighbour Totoro Tickets
About My Neighbour Totoro
‘Wow is too small a word!’ (Broadway World). The ‘jaw-dropping’ (Metro) multi-award-winning My Neighbour Totoro has found its new home in the West End and is now booking until March 2026.
Find your spirit with this ‘profoundly magical experience’ (Elle) and winner of six Olivier Awards, as the five-star, widely acclaimed adaptation of Studio Ghibli’s animated feature film appears on stage at the Gillian Lynne Theatre.
Join sisters Satsuki and Mei as they move to their curious new home in the countryside. Exploring their unfamiliar surroundings, they soon encounter a world of spirits, sprites and magical creatures. Maybe it was all a dream? Or perhaps they really are now friends with the giant, ancient protector of the forest named 'Totoro' and his friend the 'Catbus'...
With ‘blockbuster awe-inspiring puppets’ (Time Out) from Puppetry Director & Designer Basil Twist and Puppetry Associate Mervyn Millar (War Horse), My Neighbour Totoro is brought to you by the Royal Shakespeare Company and Executive Producer Joe Hisaishi – in collaboration with Improbable and Nippon TV – and adapted by Tom Morton-Smith (Oppenheimer) with direction from Phelim McDermott.
