Toto the Ninja Cat

Toto the Ninja Cat runs at the King’s Theatre from Friday 23 to Sunday 25 October 2026. The family show brings a playful stage adaptation of the children’s favourite to Edinburgh and looks well-suited to half-term browsing.

With a title like this, the appeal is pretty clear. It is aimed at younger audiences, but the theatrical setup and cat-powered adventure should make it a handy family listing for grandparents, parents and anyone planning an October treat in the city.

Key Event Details

What To Expect

The show is built around Toto and a fast-moving adventure designed for children, with a strong visual side and a fun premise. Family theatre titles like this tend to work well at King’s Theatre because they have enough scale for a proper day-out feel without being overcomplicated.

Supplementary listings note an age recommendation around 5+, which sounds about right for a lively, accessible stage adventure.

Tickets & Entry

Tickets are available through Capital Theatres, and the venue has also shared promotional material for the run. Check the live listing for the most up-to-date availability.

Location

King’s Theatre is in Tollcross, close to the city centre and straightforward to reach by bus or taxi. It is one of Edinburgh’s best-known venues for family theatre as well as larger touring productions.

Getting There

Buses to Tollcross or Lothian Road are usually easiest. If you are bringing children, adding a bit of extra arrival time helps avoid any last-minute rush.
