Just to let you know that there is a version of the Hobbit touring the UK and Ireland at the moment. I saw it last night and apart from one or two deviations from the book, the main one being there were only five dwarves rather than thirteen, it was very entertaining. The play was adapted from the book by Glyn Robbins who has also done a number of C S Lewis’ Narnia books. More details can be found here.
