A CHURCH pantomime has turned into a "real family affair" with three-quarters of the cast being related.

Among the 20 actors in Northgate United Reformed Church's production of Sinner Ella are three members of the same family, with 15 of the actors related to another member of the acting cast.

The two co-producers also have children in the show.

Cast member Harry Bunting said: "The pantomime is turning out to be a real family affair. Just about everyone of us has a relation somewhere in the cast."

The cast range in ages from five to 67.

The gospel pantomime is performed at the church on Friday and Saturday.

Tickets, priced £3 or £1.50 for concessions, are available from Melanie Barker on (01325) 259615.
