CHILDREN’S classic Fantastic Mr Fox is being performed at Artrix in Bromsgrove as part of a series family events run throughout August.

Hotel Teatro presents the Roald Dahl classic which follows the vain attempts of three farmers, Boggis, Bunce and Bean, one fat, one short, one lean, to get rid of the fox who regularly steals food from their farms.

The show takes place on Friday, August 17 at 7pm and the day after (Saturday) at 2.30pm and 7pm. Tickets cost £7.50 and £5 for over 60s and under-16s.

On the Friday there will also be a series of free drop-in activities in the foyer of the venue between 11am and 3pm including balloon modelling, face painting and nail art.

Also taking place on the day is the Magic Russ Magic Show starring Dave the Wonder Dog at 2pm with tickets costing £8 and £5 for under-16s.

There is also an acting workshop for those aged six to 11 costing £6 and running between 10am and 12noon and a graffiti art and embroidery workshop.
