Hairy Maclary and his friends have sprung off the page and are heading for the stage at Riverside Studios.

The canine star of Lynley Dodd's much loved children's book, Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy has just had a sell-out run at the Edinburgh Festival and is now set to provide five days of family fun in Hammersmith.

And to celebrate, we have a family ticket for two adults and two children to give away.
