DIARY OF A WIMPY KID: PRODUCTION IS A FIRST FOR THE COUNTRY

- Hein Kaizer

It is probably going to be one of theatre's hottest tickets this year. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Musical will bring some of contemporary literature's most popular characters to life on stage next month at The Theatre on the Square in Sandton.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid has become one of the biggest selling book series of all time. Since its release in 2007 it has drawn in millions of young readers with its blend of humour, relatable characters and punchy storytelling.

Main character Greg Heffley is a middle pupil in suburban America who sees himself as a future success, but struggles with the realities of friendships, family and fitting in.

He captures everything in his journal which, in turn, are the books that mix the diary entries and comic illustrations.

Adults enjoy them just as much as kids because the humour is sharp, the illustrations comical and the situations familiar for anyone who remembers the challenges of growing up or for raising kids.
