The New Community Academy is seeking children to join the cast of its production of Oliver!

Four-legged cast member Ruby has been announced as Bill Sikes’ loyal dog but the Academy still needs youngsters to take on roles, as well as adults for the chorus. The show will run at Bradford Playhouse next year.

Next Friday, The Academy is holding a Fright Night at Bolton St James’s Church Hall, off Bolton Road. The event will include live entertainment, a disco, fancy dress and pie and peas.

Anyone interested in joining the cast of Oliver! or attending FrightNight is asked to call (01274) 618148 or e-mail tncaa@live.co.uk.
