Leicester youngsters are invited to bring their own bears to a new performance of an old favourite tale at The Richard Attenborough Centre, University of Leicester, on Sunday 27th September at 2.30pm.

`Goldilocks, performed by Krazy Kat Theatre and directed by Kinny Gardner, is at The Richard Attenborough Centre, Lancaster Road, Leicester, on Sunday 27th September at 2.30pm. Admission is 7 for adults, 5 for children and concessions.
