Fee Fi Fo Fum – Come to our Panto and have some Fun!!!
Yes, it’s back! By popular demand, once again our young people have the opportunity to take part in the DBA classic ‘Panto in a Day’! This year, as you might have guessed, we will be doing Jack and The Beanstalk led, as ever, by the fabulous James Worthington and the Talegate Theatre Company.
The event will take place at The Point (please note change of venue!) on Friday, 22nd February and will run from 9.30 am until 3pm. Children will learn their songs and scripts with James and co, and perform the panto on stage for their parents/guardians at the end of the workshop.
If you know a young star in the making, don’t delay as places are limited. Contact Lynne Coppendale on lynnecoppendale@doncasterbookaward.net for full details and to book a place for some serious half-term fun!
Terrific Trio Triumph at the DBA Launch
DBA Launch 2018-19 | Thursday 11th October 2018 | Doncaster Dome
On Thursday 11th October 2018 the DBA played host to three absolutely brilliant authors in what was definitely one of our best events ever. The Dome was filled with well over 1000 cheering, clapping and laughing children as Andy Stanton, Martin Brown and Andy Cope demonstrated once again the power of books to stir imaginations, inform and entertain and the sheer joy of reading.
