‘Peppa Pig’s Treasure Hunt’ Live Director Richard Lewis answers Kidz Random Questions

How long does it take to make the live show? Joe age 7

Developing the live show takes about a year. We first meet to talk about ideas and this will eventually turns into a script which, in turn, will influence the development of the stage designs and songs. But the process continues into rehearsals as we sometimes find that things that we had planned don’t work exactly how we had anticipated. It’s important to be flexible so that you can allow good, new ideas into the final show. Even after the show has opened we continue to work on it as the audience reaction is a really good way of finding out what’s working and what isn’t.

Who is your favourite pig? Lawrence age 3

Daddy Pig. I like the way he always tries hard.

What colour are your socks? Calista age 4

Today they are black, but tomorrow they might be blue…I have some white ones as well

What is your favourite Peppa Pig place? Freddie age 7

I don’t really have a favourite place. I do like the fact that everything is so colourful. What a lovely world Peppa lives in.

Did you ever have pigs? Alex age 6

No I never had pigs, but when I was young (about 2 or 3 years old) my Mum and Dad had 600 chickens. One day they all got out and we had to catch them. That is the first memory I have.

Do you believe in Aliens? Hag age 7

I think there must be life somewhere else in the universe, but I didn’t think they’ll be like they are in the films.

What is your favourite episode? Joseph age 6

“School Bus Trip”. I like the alpine horns when they are in the mountains and they hear their own echoes

Do you like hand gliding? Con age 4

No. I’m scared of heights (unless I’m in a plane)
