INTERNATIONAL bunnies of intrigue are the stars of a family theatre show which is coming to Crook.

The Tutti Frutti company is performing Candy and Flopps, at the Elite Hall, on Thursday, October 25.

The show about cute, cuddly rabbits is described as playful, imaginative and occasionally wicked enough to engage both adults and children over the age of four.

David Plews, arts development officer for Wear Valley District Council, said: "Tutti Frutti are renowned for making simple, heart-warming and slightly unusual shows.

"It is a pleasure to welcome them to Crook, from their base in Huddersfield.

"We hope the show will provide a welcome half-term distraction for the children of Crook and Weardale."

The show starts at 7.30pm, with a tuck shop available from 6.30pm.

Tickets, priced £3.50 for adults, £2 for children and £7.50 for a family of four, are available from Mari Macdonald, on (01388) 761605, or from the Civic Centre in Crook
