Christmas started for me last Friday when I paid a visit to Neath Little Theatre to experience a great play, A Christmas Carol, which was an abridged version from the original by Charles Dickens and directed by Ffion Green.

Here I shared the evening with families of all ages, who had come from far and wide ready to experience the magic of Christmas, in one of the smallest and intimate theatres in the area.

This theatre is kept alive by a community of hardworking and loyal volunteers that have a passion for live entertainment – a passion which I share.  They are determined to keep this tradition alive and it is one which I believe we should all support with the same enthusiasm
