YOUNGSTERS are hoping to hook themselves a part in this year's Christmas pantomime at Middlesbrough Theatre.

Auditions were held at the weekend for parts in children's favourite Peter Pan.

With plenty of parts on offer for the youngsters, it was the perfect opportunity for them to try out their singing, dancing and acting skills.

The theatre has booked the show for about four weeks, and will have BBC Radio Cleveland's Matthew Davies as Captain Hook, with Sophie Guariglia as Peter.

Peter Pan runs from Friday, December 8, to Sunday, January 7.
