ENTRIES are being sought for the Worcestershire Theatre Festival.

The festival will be hosted by EODS (Evesham Operatic and Dramatic Society) at the Evesham Arts Centre from March 8-10 and the organisers are looking to hear from anyone who would be interested in contributing to the weekend-long programme.

Entries from schools and youth groups are welcome, as are plays, productions, music and dance.

Don Cook, festival committee member, said the first round of the theatre festival had never been held in Evesham.

"We had the Midland final here in 1967, but we have never had the first round here before," he said.

"We hope that there will be a lot of entries from this corner of the county and we look forward to giving a warm welcome to all those across the county who come to the festival."

For more information or entry forms, contact Pat Hassall on 01384 422493 or Don Cook on 01386 860378.
