Tickets are now on sale for yet another of Holsworthy Amateur Theatrical Society's spectacular productions, the pantomime 'Babes in the Wood', which opens on January 26.

Producer Phil Barfett describes it as an 'old fashioned traditional pantomime with plenty of comedy, including a ghost scene.

The cast of 30 includes a strong line-up of principals. Kim Whiting appears as principal boy, Robin Hood, and Bethany Lock is the principal girl, Maid Marion. Ian Croxton and Lesley Wonnacott play the 'baddies', the Sheriff of Nottingham and Witch Nell. Once again Peter Whitehead plays the Dame, Shannon Sutton and Brodie Burnett are the Babes, Jack and Jill, and Martin Jordan and Kay Napier are paired as comic villains, Floggem and Whippem. Mike Wonnacott is Musical Director and choreography by Heather Knights and Lesley Wonnacott.

With the same vastly experienced and talented teams currently beavering away in the wardrobe and scenery departments the usual spectacular costumes and sets are promised.

The show runs on Mondays to Saturdays from January 26 to February 7 at 7.30pm with matinees at 2.30pm on the Saturdays. Tickets are £6 for the first two performances on January 26 and 27, after which they cost £8 with concessions at £6.
