Having been spotted, the Big Friendly Giant grabs Sophie and takes her back to his cave, where they eat snozzcumbers and drink frobscottle, before galloping off to Dream Country to collect some dreams. To save the people of England from being eaten up by the man-eating giants, Sophie and the BFG must concoct a dream that will persuade the Queen to believe in evil giants, so that with the help of the army and the air force, they might be rid of them once and for all

    Content: What if the gnomes in your garden were freed from their boring, static lives, and allowed to go off on an adventure? Would they find excitement, or danger; would they be scared or thrilled? Two garden gnomes, Mr Fisher and Mr Wheeler, find out in David Wood's delightful play for children. Picking their way through a concrete cityscape, via alley-cats and streetlamps, a jungle for which they are altogether the wrong size, they meet all sorts of urban characters. But will they find their way back home? 'The Ideal Gnome Expedition' was first produced by the Liverpool Playhouse Company in December, 1980

    Content: David Wood thought pantomime a form that 'tried to appeal to everybody, yet ultimately satisfied nobody'. He took to writing pantomime substitutes, shows created to be programmed in the annual panto season, but not wholly conforming to the panto form. Indeed, 'Mother Goose's Golden Christmas' is not based on the traditional Mother Goose story, but does feature a host of fairy tale characters from Mother Goose herself, to Humpty Dumpty and Little Bo Peep. Set inside a giant book, all the 'little' characters of the fairytales are incorporated into one new story - the daring rescue of the goose that lays the golden eggs. 'Mother Goose's Golden Christmas' was first presented at the Queen's Theatre, Hornchurch, in December 1977

    Content: Set entirely on a kitchen dresser, 'The Gingerbread Man' is one of Britain's most successful plays for children. Wood writes: 'I didn't want to recreate the nursery tale about the Gingerbread Man who eventually gets eaten by the fox, so started to think of a more contemporary situation, in which a freshly-baked gingerbread man might affect the day-to-day lives of other characters living in the ktichen where he had been baked.' Other characters in the play include Herr Von Cuckoo, a cuckoo in a cuckoo clock who sports natty leder-hosen; Salt, a salt cellar with pretentions to being a sailor; Pepper, an elegant lady, and a pepper-cellar; The Old Bag, a short-tempered teabag; and Sleek the mouse, an intruding American gangster of a mouse. 'The Gingerbread Man' was first performed at Basildon's Towngate Theatre in December 1976

    Content: At a public meeting a vote is taken; should the unused field next to the supermarket be converted into a children's playground, allowing parents somewhere to leave their children in safety and enjoyment while they shop? It seems like a straightforward decision; there is only one obstacle, a 300-year-old oak tree which stands proudly in the field. Once used as a makeshift playground itself, it is known as the See-saw tree, after the branch upon which children rocked back and forth. As the issue is debated, suddenly another world emerges: the community of animals who live in the tree come to life. With their habitat under threat they find themselves having to put aside their squabbles and work together to save their community. But how will the people vote? 'The See-Saw Tree' was first performed by the Farnham Repertory Company in 1986
