Royston-based Corvus Amateur Drama Society (CADS) is hoping its latest production will impress the judges at the Welwyn Festival next week.
The festival this year is a bit different from normal due to lockdown restrictions, as it will be entirely online with groups sending in filmed versions of their work.
CADS secretary Michael Young said: We’ve really been missing the chance to perform during the pandemic and this seemed the ideal opportunity for us to do some proper acting. Local author Roy Maddox has written a couple of pantomimes for us in the past, and also adapted the one-act play Strangers on a Film, which we had hoped to enter into several festivals last year before these were cancelled.

This year s Welwyn Drama Festival will go on – with an online version being staged in May.
When the 86th Welwyn Drama Festival was cancelled last year following the COVID-related closure of the Barn Theatre in Welwyn Garden City, nobody imagined that the shutdown would still be in force in May 2021.
