There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly
February 2 @ 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM
From your five a day to the latest weight loss advice, consumers have been presented with some remarkable diet plans down the years but none so wacky and delightful as the one enjoyed by the old lady in the nursery rhyme There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly.
First written as a song in 1953 it was a chart topping hit for singer and actor Burl Ives before being adapted into the best selling book by Pam Adams a few years later.
This version, found in schools, nurseries and homes across the world is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary and to mark the occasion best selling Children’s author Steven Lee (How The Koala Learnt To Hug, Don’t Dribble On The Dragon, I Spy With My Little Eye) has turned this hugely popular tale into a magical musical stage show written especially for little ones to enjoy with their parents.
