Dove Players do Treasure Island, The Village Hall, Occold - 11th January 2025

It's finally time for the performances of Dove Players' pantomime Treasure Island, with one on Friday evening and a Matinée and evening performance on the Saturday. Fred and Nosher are in the band, and Isobel and Harry are in the cast, so once again it's a family affair. Then, on a frosty Sunday morning, we're back again to help tidy up. On the Saturday evening, Vicky's daughter Amber borrows the camera to get some on-stage and back-stage photos during the performance.
