CHILDREN performed a range of colourful dances at an Easter show in Darlington.

The eight to 13-year-olds from the Redhall Partnership put on the dance show at the Harrowgate Hill Club. The first half of the show consisted of dances from the show Fame - which the group had seen at the town's Civic Theatre.

The second half saw the children performing songs from the pop charts. The group is made up of about 25 boys and girls.

Sarah Small, play development coordinator for the Redhall Partnership, said the children had done really well and had a lot of fun. She said: "The kids had only been practicing the dances for six weeks, but did really well and everyone enjoyed the night."
