ROLL up, roll up, for the most magnifical, tremendible and fantasticulous experience in town.

Les Enfants Terribles is bringing its ever-popular family show The Marvellous Imaginary Menagerie to Helmsley Arts Centre on Sunday, April 3.

Watch the caravan of curiosities and its crew of mysterious misfits as they discover if bumblewasps are poisonous, what whistling panks eat, what happens when you lick trisillian toads, and whether the fabled Brian May Cow actually exists?

Help them answer these and more pointless questions in a ludicrously lyrical and magically musical tour of the Imaginary Menagerie’s finest exhibits. The one-hour show is designed to delight big children and little adults alike with songs, tall tales and some very peculiar creatures.

Written by Anthony Spargo and Oliver Lansley, a published playwright who also works extensively in television co-creating/writing ITV2's FM and numerous other projects, including WHITES which was shown on BBC2 and starred Alan Davies.

Oliver was named a Broadcast Hotshot’s by Broadcast magazine and won the Multi-talented award at Channel 4’s 4-Talent Awards.

Director James Seager said: “I think the show succeeds in not patronising kids, which is important. It doesn't talk down to them, and I believe that this is one of the reasons why it has a huge fun appeal and a real joy about it which adult audiences respond to.”
