Soul Church, on Mason Road, welcomed the public to a festive production which included Christmas songs, Disney characters and numerous talented performers, appealing to children of all ages.

Due to popularity, the church's 600-seat auditorium sold out, leaving several viewers having to watch on big screens in the 'overflow' area of the church. The production was also broadcasted online.

Pastor Jon Norman said: 'The Wonder is our gift back to the people of Norwich.

'The possibility of hosting The Wonder over two weekends next year to ensure that, as the event continues to grow, everyone has a chance to be a part of the magic.'
