A trio of amateur panto productions will be hitting stages across north Norfolk over the next week.
The Friends of Mundesley Volunteer Inshore Lifeboat will be putting on the family favourite Cinderella.
It will be full of booing and hissing, songs, dances, jokes and of course a love story.
The show will be performed in the Coronation Hall, Mundesley, from Tuesday February 18-Saturday February 22 at 7.30pm.
Cinderella is the latest in an annual tradition stretching back 41 years to 1973 and is staged to support the local inshore lifeboat, a volunteer institution which receives no financial help from the RNLI.
The pantomime is one of many fund-raising activities the friends group organises to support the local resource.
It is directed by Ian Cashmore and Pat Nearney with Sharon Jiggins in charge of the music.
The script is written by Mundesley's own Nigel Holmes.
Cast members include Victoria Ing as Cinderella; Cerian Ellson as Prince Charming; Pat Nearney and Neil Ellson as the ugly sisters; Sharron Jiggins as Dandini; and Paul Reynolds as Buttons.
Sheilah Olley plays The Norfolk Fairy; Lottie Waller plays Fairy Godmother; Jean Clarke and Judy Ellson are the clowns; Christon Sharpe plays Baron Hardup; and Dave Marshall plays Herald.
They are well supported by a strong chorus.
Tickets cost £6.50 for adults and £3.50 for children under 12 and are on sale at the Friends of Mundesley Lifeboat shop in Mundesley, open Monday to Friday 10am-4pm and Saturday 10am -1pm. Alternatively call 01263 722899.
