THE first major UK stage production featuring Hergé's legendary cartoon hero Tintin is visiting The Lowry prior to a run in London's West End.

The show is running from Wednesday to Saturday, September 1, at the Salford theatre.

Join Tintin, his loyal dog Snowy and the curmudgeonly Captain Haddock as they battle to rescue their friend Chang lost in a plane crash in the high Himalayas.

With time running out and rumours of the Abominable Snowman prowling the peaks, this will be the most testing adventure yet for our fearless young reporter and his friends.

This is a non-stop rollercoaster ride of a rollocking adventure as Tintin risks everything to save his friends and rescue Chang - superb storytelling and wonderfully imaginative and visual theatre.

The perfect holiday treat for all the family!

Tintin, The Lowry, Salford Quays, from August 29 to September 1. Call box office on 0870 787 5793 or
