WARWICK Arts Centre is presenting Roald Dahl's The Twits as its family Christmas theatre show for December 2000.

A huge hit at Coventry's Belgrade Theatre last spring, it opens at Warwick Arts Centre prior to a major national tour.

Recommended for children aged five and over, Roald Dahl's The Twits is adapted from the renowned writer's magical and mesmerising tale of the disgusting couple Mr and Mrs Twit. Their strange and disturbing ways meet with a well-deserved ghastly surprise, cunningly hatched by the Muggle-Wump monkeys and the Roly-Poly bird.

It runs from the December 2 to 30.

Tickets can be bought from the box office on 024 7652 4524.
