Balerno Theatre Company’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at the Church Hill may not be a traditional Christmas show but certainly provides a large helping of festive cheer.

Cinderella The Panto

Review – Oliver!
A great children’s chorus and some top performances of the big set pieces make the Balerno Theatre Company’s production of Oliver! – at the Church Hill Theatre till Saturday – well worth the ticket. If you can get a ticket for the sell-out run, that is.
