Drama students from Ashton Sixth Form College's Performing Arts department delivered their Christmas pantomime show at the Birchfield Residential Scheme.

Birchfield Residential Homes are based in Ashton-under-Lyne and are led by the Jigsaw Group. The housing is available to individuals and families who need it and the residents who live there do so for a number of reasons. 

Students wanted to give back this year and use their talents to help others. The pantomime 'Fairytale' allowed the children and their families to escape in to a magical world of Christmas for the afternoon. Santa was also in attendance, playing a pivotal role and handed out treats to the children. 

The Performing Arts department enjoyed their visit and the panto was extremely well-received and enjoyed by all. The students also took a lot away from the visit reflecting on how they can use their performances to capture imaginations of all ages.
