Director James Weisz said: ““It’s going to be great fun auditioning and choosing our Mini Mowglis. Our local child performers are always so enthusiastic, team-orientated and full of fun, which translates into each performance. We usually have around 60 local schoolchildren taking part in our Christmas pantomimes, and last year’s summer season productions at BOAT were exceptionally well-received by theatre-goers.”
