The Little Britain star, Birmingham Stage Company and Coalition Agency have teamed up for a touring production of the children’s tale about Joe Spud, the richest boy in the world.
The show began a national tour in 2019 but was halted by the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.
He has his own sports car, £100k a week pocket money, and two crocodiles as pets.
But what Joe doesn’t have is a friend. So he decides to leave his posh school and start at the local comprehensive.
But things don t go as planned for Joe and life becomes a rollercoaster as he tries find the one thing money can t buy.
Car Park Party was launched last summer and quickly became the nation’s favourite family drive-in with Horrible Histories ‘Barmy Britain’.
While the UK continues its fight back against the coronavirus pandemic, children continue to miss out on live arts, and so Easter presents the perfect time to bring live theatre to families across the country.
