Prompt, props, backstage crew definitely needed!

The above is a guide only – many cast members will play a number of roles each, which come in and out of the story so will get the chance to show off their versality as actors. There will be some carol singing plus a tiny bit of dancing.

Note: ages can vary (probably quite wildly) as age availability will always be an issue.

This production is an ideal opportunity for those members who have little/no experience of The Little Theatre stage – come along and try out, you might just surprise yourself!

Scripts are available from box office – please return as soon as you’ve read them so others might also read them.
