Much loved Christmas panto heading to newly refurbished village hall

Wollaston Village Hall is to host the family pantomime Cinderella this Christmas.

Cinderella - a panto for all the family

Volunteers have been busily working away at the regeneration of the community hall, giving many hours of their time to the project. The village hall aims to become a central hub for community use and will be hosting regular events and activities encouraging local people to make full use of the facilities. One of these events will be A Comedy Theatre Group’s Christmas pantomime, which will provide a wonderful opportunity for local people to come and see what has been achieved and to join in with a celebration of all their hard work.

The recently refurbished and reopened village hall in Wollaston will be playing host to the traditional end of year pantomime performed by members of A Comedy Theatre Group.
