TICKETS are now on sale for Tyldesley Little Theatre's 17th consecutive panto "Sinbad the Sailor."

The show, which promises to be a fun-filled family extravaganza, runs to December 11, and will ring in some changes.

The exotic plot means that instead of the usual village and palace scenes the audience should be prepared for a jungle of man eating plants and the Sacrifice Stone of the Island of Nirvana.

Everything else will remain the same, a young chorus of dancers, songs old and new, and as many ancient and groan inducing jokes as possible.

The company, now in its 84th year, is working to make the show the best ever, and theyre hoping it will follow in the footsteps of last year's award winning show "Jack and Jill" which took the best panto section of the Bolton Evening News Amateur Stage Awards.

Tickets are available from the box office on 01204 655619 or 01942 886908.
