Beautiful Creatures Theatre will be performing a high-flying, tightrope-walking, hypnotising version of Fizzlebert Stump.

The group will be producing a brand new, hilarious adaptation of AF Harrold’s much-loved book for children featuring puppetry, magic and a lion with false teeth.

A spokesman for the group said: “Once and once only, there was a boy whose name was Fizz.

“Fizzlebert Stump lives in the travelling circus.

“His best friend is a sea lion, his history teacher is a magician, and every night he puts his head right inside a lion’s mouth.

“It sounds like a frightfully exciting place to live, don’t you think?

“But it’s the library, of all places, where Fizzlebert stumbles into a terrifying situation of great peril, where he finally makes a friend, and where his strange circus skills really come in handy.”
