A spokeswoman for the Blakey Moor theatre said: “Basil Brush is a star with an outstanding ability to entertain and make people of all ages laugh and smile.

“He is cheeky, irreverent, charming, naughty, quick-witted, scheming and foxy, but at the same time he is kind, caring and affectionate.

“Now, Britain’s most loveable fox is back on the road along with his TV chum Mr Stephen.

“Together they will take you on a journey of laughs, storytelling and song in a brand new specially written ‘live’ stage show packed with fun and excitement.

“Come and join in the mayhem, along with Mr Stephen who is continually interrupted by naughty uncontrollable Basil.”

“This is a show for all the family and you will also be able to meet Basil and Mr Stephen after the show.”

Tickets go on sale on Friday and cost £14 or £12 with concessions.
