BEEP beep! Beep the Bus is coming to Blackpool and bringing his magical four piece band with him in an exciting new children's show.

The Wheels On The Bus, inspired by the traditional children's sing-along song, is making a stop at the Opera House on October 3 and 4.

Based on a forthcoming video and TV animation series, the show is a musical and storytime spectacular designed to get children singing along and joining in the action.

Beep and his band -- loud Trombone, bossy Double Bass, cool Sax and rowdy Drum, along with adorable Daisy Dalmation -- embark on a host of fantastical musical adventures in Sing Song City.

A very important person is due to open the Music Fair in Sing Song City but suddenly everything starts vanishing! Whatever can be happening? It's up to Beep and his friends to solve the mystery.

Amid an array of colourful costumes, zany adventures, favourite nursery rhyme characters, loads of audience participation and a score of sing-along songs, Beep gets his big wheels turning and saves the day.

The Wheels On The Bus is a wonderful introduction to the joys of music and music-making for children aged two to seven and beyond.

And Beep the bus made a special stop at Busy Bees Nursery at the Salvation Army citadel on Raikes Parade, Blackpool, on Monday (Sep 24) when Scarecrow, Little Bow Peep and Saxophone -- some of the show's magical characters -- dropped in to visit the children.

Beep and friends will be appearing at 1.30pm at the Opera House, Winter Gardens on October 3 and 4. Tickets are £7.50 for adults and £6.50 for children. Family tickets (2 adults and 2 children) are available at £26. So hang on to your tickets and don't miss the bus!
