About The Paddington The Musical Show
From the classic novels written by Michael Bond, the musical “Paddington” is the story of a kind and lovable bear who comes from Darkest Peru to London looking for a place to call home. Traveling by himself to Paddington Station with only a suitcase, floppy hat, and label that says “Please take care of this bear,” the bear is adopted by the nice Brown family. As the bear adjusts to living in the city, his good intentions result in comic situations and adventures.
