MEMBERS of Kays Theatre Group are preparing for their next production, Mother Goose, and they recently visited a local flock of geese for useful tips.

It's not that the team are unfamiliar with Mother Goose; in fact, it will be the fifth time that the group has staged this particular panto at The Swan Theatre in Worcester.

But to get a new angle, cast members recently visited Goodman’s Geese at Great Witley, "to get some first-hand experience in looking after geese".

The spokesman added: "They certainly have their hands full during the pantomime when helping Mother Goose, otherwise known as Barry North, keep control of Priscilla, otherwise known as Gail Moran, who plays the goose that lays golden eggs."

Also on stage will be dancers from Dance World Cup 2016 Winners, Harlequin Stage School.

The pantomime will take place from January 26 to February 5.

Tickets can be purchased now at the Kays Box Office on 01905 425299 or 08453 883783.
