Panto Comes To Shipton Moyne
Planning is under way for our own village panto. I hope this will involve the whole community, young and old, performers, back stage, all elements of production, including writing/adapting our own script. I have already had several volunteers! Lots of roles and opportunities for a fun and wonderful village event. More info and details to follow but now is the time to gather interest and start planning. Time scale for staging the panto is likely to be late January/early February. Please get in touch if you would like to be involved at any level.
Please email me or leave a message on my phone with interest and your top three pantos of choice.
