It's pirate panto time
7:07am Friday 1st February 2008 in Witney By David Horne
Rachel Walter, who plays Jemima Hawkins, is pictured above with Jaimie Bunting who plays Long John Silver.
AHOY me hearties! is the call as a village drama group gets into pirate mode for their Treasure Island panto.
The Windmill Players at North Leigh are in last rehearsals for the show which has a creative take on Robert Louis Stevenson's adventure story.
Long John Silver is in there, but the heroine is Jemima Hawkins, along with a terrifying Chinese woman pirate accepted as a man.
The show hits the stage today and tomorrow Saturday at the Memorial Hall. Performances start at 7.30pm.
Tickets are available by calling 01993 881189 or 01993 881365.
