PANTO TIME
Excitement is building and there is only a few days to go until our local Panto group present this years’ production of ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’. Expect lots of fun and laughter along with some great songs that we can all sing along to. The Panto will be staged in Kilbarron Hall on Friday Jan 6 and Saturday Jan 7th at 8pm with doors opening at 7.15pm on both nights. There will also be a matinee on Sunday Jan 8th at 5pm with doors opening at 4.15pm. Admission is €5 per child and €10 per adult. After the huge success of last year’s Panto, we hope to see you all back again to see if the handsome Prince can rescue the beautiful Snow White, or will the Evil Queen get her hopeless Hunters to do anything right. And as for the Seven Dwarfs – well, they have to be seen to be believed!! Hope to see you all in Kilbarron next weekend.
