IF it works for England, it can work for the cast of Darlington Civic Theatre's pantomime.

So the cast of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, led by former Emmerdale star Lisa Riley, headed off to Darlington Rugby Club yesterday for some last-minute rehearsals. The show opens on Thursday, running through to Sunday, January 18.

Alongside Lisa, as the Ring Mistress, will be Darlington's Steve Luck as Dame Gertie, as well as father and son duo Clive Webb and Danny Adams as clowns Bozo and Billy; evil circus owner Heinkel is played by Phil Omerod and Rebecca Oglesby stars as Goldilocks.
