Lockdown Panto<br />

<strong>St</strong> <strong>Helens</strong> Theatre Royal will be bringing the holiday fun<br />

to your front room with their online offering of Jack and<br />

the Beanstalk.<br />

Original plans to stage the panto live have now been<br />

revised as it is not yet permitted to open the venue’s<br />

doors to the public. Instead, Jack and the Beanstalk will<br />

be filmed and streamed online during the Easter break,<br />

enabling families to enjoy the experience of pantomime<br />

during the school holidays but from the comfort of their<br />

own home.<br />

The whole family can join Jack on his gigantic journey up<br />

the beanstalk as he discovers geese with golden eggs, a<br />

magic harp, and not forgetting a close encounter with a<br />

very hungry giant.<br />

Theatre staff have planned for 17 performances between<br />

Friday <strong>Apr</strong>il 2 and Sunday <strong>Apr</strong>il 11, and booking is now<br />

open.<br />

Theatre Manager Chantelle Nolan said, “We were really<br />

looking forward to welcoming audiences back into the<br />

theatre this Easter, we’ve all missed out on so much in<br />

the last year, so families can still experience all the panto<br />

fun and laughter but from the comfort of their own living<br />

room, while tucking into their Easter eggs.”<br />

<strong>St</strong>reaming access can be booked by calling the Box Office<br />

on 01744 756000.<br />

Lego Challenge<br />

Rainford Parish Church has some exciting news for<br />

Lego lovers. Members will be taking part in a Lent Lego<br />

Challenge and are inviting anyone who loves Lego to join<br />

in and share their Lego creation throughout Lent.<br />

The daily challenges started on Monday <strong>Mar</strong>ch 15 but<br />

will run for three weeks, up to Easter, so there is plenty of<br />

opportunity to get involved. The idea is to for participants<br />

to get involved in the daily build challenges and explore<br />

some of the key events of Holy Week.<br />

If you don’t have Lego, not to worry, you could use other<br />

construction toys or junk modelling. For more information<br />

about the event, please search for Rainford Parish Church<br />

on Facebook or email enquiries@Rainfordparishchurch.<br />
