The first show was staged last night, with further performances at 7pm tonight, tomorrow and Friday, before a final matinee show on Saturday at 2pm.

Margaret Stephenson, who is in charge of the costumes and helps to run the show, said: “The show has been going for over 50 years, and is a great tradition in Blackhall.

“Dick Whittington has a lovely story, and this is a great show.”

Tickets for the show cost £4 across the board, with the panto to be produced by Carole Scott and choreographed by Catherine Hall.
