The Smurfs, who have blue bodies and live in mushroom-shaped houses in a forest, are back to entertain at the Torch!

The Theatre’s Anwen Francis said: “Everyone loves the Smurfs, first invented in 1958. They were first created as a series of comic characters by the Belgian artist Peyo and by now there are more than 100 Smurf characters. Their names are based on adjectives that emphasise their characteristics.”

Smurfs features an all-star voice cast including Rihanna, James Corden, Nick Offerman, JP Karliak, Daniel Levy, Amy Sedaris, Natasha Lyonne, Sandra Oh, Octavia Spencer, Nick Kroll, Hannah Waddingham, Alex Winter, Maya Erskine, Billie Lourd, Xolo Maridueña with Kurt Russell and John Goodman.
