Produced by Global Creatures (creators of Walking With Dinosaurs and How to Train Your Dragon) the show will be presided over by American opera and theatre director Daniel Kramer.

Today, nearly 12 months from King Kong’s anticipated opening date, Global Creatures launched a monthly video podcast which will afford rare glimpses into the creative process of this exciting World Premiere production.

Episode One of the web series features director Daniel Kramer as he talks through the many elements which will come together to bring King Kong to life on stage.
