THERE will be spooky goings-on at the Palace Theatre when a Halloween mask, make-up and face painting workshop takes place this week.

Rainbow Faces of Redditch has teamed up with the Palace Youth Theatre to stage the workshop so youngsters aged nine to 14 can prepare to scare in time for a Halloween festival at the end of the month.

The workshop runs at the theatre from 12.30-4pm on Saturday and costs £6.

To book a place, visit the Tourist Information Centre in Alcester Street or call 65203.
