FUN and games with Aladdin were held at a care home last week thanks to a theatre company.
Act One Theatre productions performed the pantomime for residents at St George's Lodge, in Middleton St George.
The panto cast included Vicki Glover and Ryan Depanio, from Hartlepool, who were making their stage debuts.
Activities co-ordinator Jackie Malton said: "The residents just loved it. They were all joining in.
Afterwards we had an impromptu carol concert with Act One leading the singing.
"There was lots of laughter as pantomime dame Widow Twanky sat on knees and gave the elderly gentleman the eye.
"It was really very moving and very lovely."
A spokesman for the theatre company said: "The actors put a great deal of effort and energy into every performance because they genuinely enjoy bringing joy to others."
