A MAGICAL fairy tale show will be performed by a talented group of youngsters.

The Kyds Youth Drama Society will take on the Magical Tale of Snow White, by Brian Luff, in Tolleshunt Knights Village Hall.

The drama group is based in Tiptree and has members from the surrounding area.

Kyds is an educational charity which organises performing arts workshops and projects, with the aim of helping young people in Essex gain valuable skills.

It was founded in 2009 and is now a charity run by an experienced team of volunteers.

A spokesman for the group said: “Most of our work is towards preparing two productions each year - one in the summer and one in the autumn.

“Following a huge amount of work, our high-quality shows are performed to the public.

“We keep our tickets affordable for the local public and also invite members of local care homes to come and watch for free.

“By doing this, we hope to show what young people can really achieve, whilst fostering community spirit by creating fantastic community events.”

The show is on Friday, January 20, at 7.30pm, and Saturday, January 20, at 2.30pm and 7.30pm, in Tolleshunt Knights Village Hall in Top Road.

Doors open about 20 minutes before the shows start.
