THERE will be some clowning around at Redditch Town Hall as a group of performers prepare to wow young crowds during the half-term holidays.

On Tuesday, February 14, the National Clown Spectacular will come to town for two performances at 1.30pm and 3.30pm.

The show's chief laughter maker, Charlie Cheesecake, said: "We are bringing bucketfuls of laughs and gallons of fun this half-term.

"When we heard the Palace Theatre was closed for refurbishment, the town hall seemed to be a good alternative for a show during our first visit to Redditch."

Tickets are available in advance by calling 01384 423496.
