SCHOOL pupils are preparing to take to the stage for their Christmas pantomime.
Youngsters at Belmont Community School, Belmont, Durham, will present Cinderella Gets Her Fella in the school sports hall, on Buckinghamshire Road, from Wednesday to Friday (December 10-12).
Gabrielle Smith plays Cinderella, Travis Ross and Sam Fagan will appear as the Ugly Sisters and Megan Wilkinson will be the Fairy Godmother.
Travis, a year nine pupil, said: “I can’t believe how much fun we’ve had rehearsing.
“It’s great fun in performing arts. I can’t wait to get my costume on and get on stage.”
Laura Jackson, the school’s curriculum team leader for performing arts, said: “The staff and students who work on our annual pantomime never fail to impress me.
“The rehearsals have been excellent from the word go and the commitment shown by all involved is a testament to the staff and students we have here at Belmont Community School.”
There will be shows each night at 7pm, with a bar open from 6.30pm. Tickets, priced £4 for adults and £3 for concessions, can be booked by calling the school on 0191-386-5715 or emailing: l.jackson@belmontschool.org.uk
