REHEARSALS have started for a millennium show involving schools and churches in Darlington.
More than 400 people are taking part in Hopes and Dreams, a musical taking the stage at Darlington's Civic Theatre later this month.
Producer and director, the Reverend Fran Lane, from the Elm Ridge Methodist Church, said the show used the Lord's Prayer as a theme to celebrate the past, present and future.
He said: "We want to let the people of Darlington know that this is their show, and it is the biggest millennium celebration in Darlington.
"We have got hundreds of people involved in this and it will be a great event for the whole community."
There will be song and dance, comedy and drama in the production. Hopes and Dreams will run from July 18 to 22. Ticket prices range from £5 to £12.
Tickets are available from the Acorn Bookshop, 6 Skinnergate, Darlington, telephone (01325) 252344.
