What's on ... in February & March Thursday 30th January to Saturday 1st February The Adventures of Nellie the Elephant Woodmansterne Operatic and Dramatic Society (WODS) presents: The Adventures of Nellie the Elephant, an original pantomime written by Margaret Chorlton, MBE, especially for Junior WODS. The story is based on the song, 'Nellie the Elephant', recorded by 12 year old Mandy Miller in 1956. Nellie runs away from the circus and heads for the jungle, via the road to Mandalay. She is accompanied by some hilarious characters who try to help (or hinder) her on her journey. Nellie encounters some tricky situations along the way. What will happen to Nellie? Will she survive? With well-known songs, awful jokes and, of course, audience participation, the pantomime is suitable for all ages. Evening performances on Thursday and Friday at 7.30pm. Saturday matinee at 2.00pm and evening performance at 6.30pm. Tickets: Adults £10, children 3-16 £6. Interval refreshments available. Tel: [phone].
