This year’s Ellon Parish Church Drama Group’s Pantomime, Peter Pan by J M Barrie, will run in the Ellon Kirk Centre from tomorrow until Tuesday.

There will be performances tomorrow (Saturday) at 1.30pm, Sunday at 2.30pm and 6pm, Monday at 7pm and Tuesday at 7pm.

This year, Denise Goodwin returns in the role of director, charged with getting the cast into shape after the long summer break - not an easy task!

The script was written by Clare Mclean who has embellished the traditional story with local quips, jokes and a bit o’ Doric, while musical director Colin Simpson will again delight everyone with his musical talent at the piano.

The role of Peter Pan is played by fun-loving Fiona Cochrane (last year’s Aladdin) with Helen Conner (last year’s Jasmine) in the role of Tinker Bell.

Ellon’s very own Liz Gollan makes a very snappy crocodile – so look out this year's baddie Captain Hook (Gordon McCombie) and all those nasty pirates...tick, tock, tick, tock!

Of course, a pantomime wouldn’t be complete without a dame, and this year’s dame is the flamboyant Clive Moss as Nanny.

Many more well-known faces make up the rest of the cast who, with their comedy acting and singing, will give an audience of all ages a few fun-filled hours in the traditional spirit of Christmas pantomime - oh yes they will!!

Tickets are priced at £6 for adults and £4 for children up to Primary 7.
