Fancy taking one of these two to the ball?

These two very Ugly Sisters have been trying on their costumes for Brighouse Theatre Productions' family pantomime, Cinderella, which runs at Brighouse Civic Hall from January 19-22.

Rob Green is playing Gertrude (and promises to shave for his performances!), whilst John Murphy plays his sister-in-crime Grizelda.

Rob, by day is a debt adviser which could come in handy should Baron Hardup need a few tips!

And John is a well-known figure in Czerwik’s cheese shop in Brighouse and has played many parts on the Brighouse stage.

It’s the eleventh pantomime that the theatre group has presented, but only the second time out for Cinderella after a gap of 10 years.

All the pantomimes have proved popular with families, school parties and audiences in general.

Cinderella is directed by Shane Gough with Jill Lambert as musical director and Philippa Gibson as choreographer.
