TIME is running out to see a live performance of a children’s classic tale.

The Gruffalo will be live on stage today at The Forum in Barrow with tickets still available for the 1.30pm and 4.30pm performance. Tickets are also still available for the 10.30am performance tomorrow.

The show is billed as: “Join Mouse on a daring adventure through the deep, dark wood in Tall Stories’ magical, musical adaptation of the classic picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.

“Searching for hazelnuts, Mouse meets the cunning Fox, the eccentric old Owl and the high-spirited Snake. Will the story of the terrifying Gruffalo save Mouse from ending up as dinner for these hungry woodland creatures? After all, there’s no such thing as a Gruffalo – is there?

“Songs, laughs and monstrous fun for children aged three and up and their grown-ups, in the much-loved show that’s toured Britain and the world!”

The show will run for 55 minutes without an interval.
