WATCH ROALD DAHL'S THE MAGIC FINGER FOR FREE ONLINE
Starring Corinna Brown (Tara Jones in Netflix drama Heartstopper) and Lucy Mangan (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), Roald Dahl’s The Magic Finger is a glorious and imaginatively filmed theatrical reading, available free online to schools and families across the UK.
The Gregg family spend every Saturday morning out in the woods searching for animals and birds to hunt. But the girl next door cannot stand hunting, and she’s so angry about it she’s going to set the magic finger on them all. One thing is for certain, very strange and spectacular things are about to begin...
Presented by Unicorn Online and The Roald Dahl Story Company, this reading of Roald Dahl’s mischievous story is directed by former Royal Court Theatre Associate Director Milli Bhatia (Seven Methods of Killing Kylie Jenner, Royal Court) and designed by Shankho Chaudhuri (Alice in Wonderland, Brixton House).
