A CHURCH in Wokingham is preparing to make people laugh.
Corpus Christi Church’s funniest parish group is getting ready for its Parish Pantomime, 2023.
Jack and The Beanstalk will be performed in January next year.
The group are having a first rehearsal try-out and script read through next week.
Anyone interested is invited to turn up, with new faces and all abilities welcome.
No previous panto experience is necessary, just enthusiasm, and a willingness to have fun putting on the production.
At the meeting people will be able to meet others in the group, see the script, and to decide whether they would like to audition for a main part.
Sue Nind, is a member of the group:
“It’s lots of fun, and there’s no pressure to be brilliant.
“It’s a particularly great project for families to be involved in, and a good place to make new friends.
“And all the proceeds go to charity.”
Young people can take part in the pantomime, but must be introduced by an adult.
The group have been presenting pantomimes for around 10 years, with performances at Holme Grange School’s theatre in Wokingham.
The first read through meeting takes place on Sunday, September 11.
Doors open at 4.30pm at St Teresa’s Catholic Academy School Hall, Sturges Road, Wokingham.
