A CHILDREN’S play centre has already planned Christmas 2009, following the success of its first professional pantomime.

The owner of Funky Town, Hayley McKenna, has booked The Panto Company to put on Cinderella next Christmas following rave reviews of December’s Dick Whittington.

She said: “It was a fantastic performance, which entertained children from the age of two to 10 with their many set changes and colourful costumes. Parents even joined in on the fun too as the cast of six professional actors danced away and finished with a special High School Musical finale.”

Cinderella will be on December 11 2009 at Funky Town (formerly Funky Monkeys) in Grange Road.
