Rehearsals are now under way for MADAOS’s 2016 pantomime Dick Whittington and his Cat, and those hoping to be in the cast are already enjoying a very funny and fast moving script.

Rehearsals will be held every Tuesday and Thursday at the March Community Centre, Station Road, at 7.30pm.

On Sunday October 11, auditions will be held to cast the show, starting at 2pm.

There are many small roles as well as the principal parts, and a chorus of townspeople, sailors and courtiers is also needed.

If you would like to take part, just turn up at any of the pre-audition rehearsals to find out more details and get a feel for the show.

MADAOS is also looking for people to help with set construction and painting, and Front of House.

Tel Francis Pepper on 01354 656498 (after October 9), or Claire Lilley at Optima Estate Agents, or come to one of the rehearsals.
