BERE Alston's Peninsula Players will be staging their production of Alice's Adventures in Bere Alston Parish Hall next week.

The performances can be seen on Thursday, March 3, Friday, March 4 and Saturday, March 5, at 7.30pm. Tickets are available from Mansbridge and Balment in Bere Alston, priced £3.50, £3 for students and the un-waged and 50p for under fives.

The group is also celebrating a boost, in the form of a cheque for £3,500 from the Belinda O'Flynn Trust, which helps community groups on the Bere Peninsula. The players have invested the money in lights and light control equipment.

The thriving theatre group has members of all ages, from school year four upwards. It stages one major performance a year and holds workshops on a weekly basis throughout the year.
