Moon<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>The Crown<\/em>) as Roald Dahl, comes to the big screen. With a stellar cast including Aya Cash (<em>The Boys, The Franchise,&nbsp;<\/em><em>You\u2019re the Worst<\/em>), Elliot Levey (<em>Cold War, Patriots, Good<\/em>) and Rachael Stirling (<em>The Divine Mrs S<\/em>), the play was filmed live in London\u2019s West End ahead of its sold-out Broadway run.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A world-famous children\u2019s author under threat. A battle of wills in the wake of scandal. And one chance to make amends\u2026 It\u2019s the summer of 1983,&nbsp;<em>The Witches<\/em>&nbsp;is about to hit the shelves and Roald Dahl is making last-minute edits.&nbsp; But the outcry at his recent, explicitly antisemitic article won\u2019t die down. Across a single afternoon at his family home, and rocked by an unexpectedly explosive confrontation, Dahl is forced to choose: make a public apology or risk his name and reputation. Inspired by real events, GIANT&nbsp;explores with dark humour the difference between considered opinion and dangerous rhetoric offering a complicated portrait of a fiendishly charismatic icon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<strong>Saturday 28th November 2026<\/strong><br>Matin\u00e9e performance<br><strong>3.00pm (doors open 2.30pm)<\/strong><br>Evening performance<br><strong>7.00pm (doors open 6.30pm)<\/strong><br><br><strong>Available from..<\/strong>.\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketsource.com\/topsham-community-association\/giant-matinee\/e-mvmrlo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"321\" height=\"180\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topshamca.uk\/theatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/TS-Matinee.jpg\" alt=\"Matinee\" class=\"wp-image-33\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topshamca.uk\/theatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/TS-Matinee.jpg 321w, https:\/\/www.topshamca.uk\/theatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/TS-Matinee-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 321px) 100vw, 321px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketsource.com\/topsham-community-association\/giant-evening\/e-glgazd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"321\" height=\"180\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topshamca.uk\/theatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/TS-Evening.jpg\" alt=\"Evening\" class=\"wp-image-34\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topshamca.uk\/theatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/TS-Evening.jpg 321w, https:\/\/www.topshamca.uk\/theatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/TS-Evening-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 321px) 100vw, 321px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<strong>Tickets also available from<\/strong>\u2026<br><br><strong>Matthews Hall Caf\u00e9<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Tues to Friday 9.30am \u2013 2.00pm and Saturday 8.30am \u2013 2.00pm<br><br><strong>The Topsham Bookshop \u2013&nbsp;<\/strong>Monday to Saturday 10.30am \u2013 1.00pm and 2.00pm \u2013 5.00pm<br><br><strong>TICKETS AT THE DOOR MAY BE VERY LIMITED<\/strong> and, at times,<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>unavailable if already sold out by the above providers.\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sorry, no dogs, except assistance dogs<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"GIANT - The Play Cinema Trailer\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nuDxd6TDVdk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
