Chitty Car is an eggcellent draw this Easter
March 23, 2008
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang made an early visit to Sunderland over Easter.
Although the hit musical does not arrive back at the Sunderland Empire for a few weeks yet the car made a stop at the Bridges Shopping Centre over the holiday period.
The car is the original from the hit film and caused quite a stir with shoppers of all ages stopping to have a look at the iconic vehicle.
The Sunderland Empire provided facilities to book tickets for the show while children could colour-in and make windmills (the Potts family in the musical live in a windmill). Facepainting by local company Fun for Faces also proved to be a popular attraction at the exhibition area.
