The tale of a shipwreck will grace the stage at Hethersett Village Hall in an upcoming pantomime.

The Hethersett Pantomime Group will be tackling Robinson Crusoe for the first time in its 49 year history.

Jennie Hoult, who is in charge of ticket sales for the show, said: '(The panto) will once again include all the unexpected twists and turns and humour that has made it such a popular yearly event.'

There will be 7.30pm performances on January 20, 23, 24, 25, 26 and 27, and 2pm shows on January 20, 21 and 27. Tickets are £7, including a programme and refreshment, available from November 9 by calling 01603 811337 or by emailing hethersettpantotickets@gmsail.com. Tickets will also be for sale at Hethersett Library from November 11. Profits go to charity and village organisations.

Mrs Hoult said: 'Last year we had sold the majority of tickets by the beginning of the New Year and it ended in a total sell-out.'
