Peppa will be stopping by on Tuesday 10th April, to host a series of free Goldilocks story-telling sessions and true-to-life puppetry shows, and is giving local children the opportunity to come along and join in the fairytale fun.

Each reading will give children the chance to meet puppet-Peppa herself, ahead of her new Treasure Hunt theatre production, which is being held at Birmingham’s New Alexandra Theatre on 11th and 12th April.

Touchwood’s exclusive story-telling sessions will be held at 12.30pm and 2pm in Peppa’s special reading room by the John Lewis Espresso Bar on Crescent Arcade, and in celebration of the event, Peppa is inviting local children to dress up as their favorite fairytale character and come along to hear her tales.

Lucy Burnett, marketing manager at Touchwood, comments: “We are thrilled to be welcoming Peppa to the centre and are sure she will prove very popular with our younger guests. Places are limited and will be issued on a first come, first served basis, so make sure you pop along early if you want to be in with a chance of meeting Peppa.”

Furthermore, to mark Peppa’s visit, Touchwood is giving a limited number of lucky children the chance to be the first to attend a special preview performance at 11am, with an exclusive competition.  To be in with a chance of winning a place, please visit www.touchwoodsolihull.co.uk and complete the online entry form before Monday 2nd April.
