IF you fancy Ratburger at a picnic, get yourself along to Hartlebury Castle this August.

David Walliams' award-winning children's story, Ratburger, will be brought to life by Heartbreak Productions, on Friday, August 5.

As spokesman said: "David Walliams' background as a comedian is more apparent than ever in his award winning children's story.

"Settle down to a picnic in the Carriage Circle and follow the adventures of Zoe as she battles through a life filled with grizzly characters, including the menacing Burt, of Burt's Burgers, who's after her, and her pet rat."

Well, meat hardly comes cheap these days, does it?

The spokesman added: "Starting at 6.30pm, with a barbeque serving Really Awfully Tasty (RAT) burgers from 5pm, it will be a perfect way to spend a summer evening with the family."

Jacqui Watson, Trustee for Hartlebury Castle Preservation Trust, said: “Last year's production of Mr Stink went down a storm and we're excited that Heartbreak are back this year with a new Walliams story to thrill young and old alike."
