Yep – you’re looking at Toto, the Ninja Cat, and Toto will be throwing some moves in the direction of anyone who is over five this August when she comes to the Gala in Durham.

First up: Toto may look like an ordinary cat, but she’s most definitely no ordinary moggy. Almost completely blind, Toto has developed some incredible ninja skills that go nicely with her big heart and nose for adventure. By day, of course, she spends her time productively (i.e. largely asleep), but by night she undertakes daring missions alongside her sidekick, and decidedly cheeky brother, Silver. This musical is based on Dermot O’Leary’s best-selling children’s book and features some extraordinary puppetry and plenty of laugh-out-loud shenanigans.

Toto the Ninja Cat and the Great Snake Escape, 11-13 August, Gala Durham, 4.30pm Tues then 11am & 2pm Wed & Thurs, £16 (under 16s £14, family ticket £56), galadurham.co.uk
