11am & 2pm. ‘An acclaimed madcap musical comedy for children aged 3 to 10, featuring puppetry and witty original songs!’ In the town of ‘Ghoooul’ (not to be confused with the Yorkshire town of ‘Goole’) Dr Frankenheinz is rustling up something special for the annual Halloween cooking competition… the HALLOWBEAN!! The Dr hopes his tomatoey terror will dazzle ‘SCARY’ Berry – the most frightful food critic of them all.The only problem is his eeny beany isn’t very scary. In fact, she’s downright lovable! Uh oh. Will Halloween have to be cancelled? Or can the Hallowbean find her scare in time? Perhaps there’s a valuable lesson to learn – that by simply being the bean you are, you’re scary enough? Running time 45 minutes. Tickets from £8.
