TV stars will be treading The Brindley boards in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

Hollyoaks star Melissa Wells will join I’m A Celebrity runner-up Kim Woodburn from TV show How Clean Is Your House in Halton Council’s family show which runs from December 12, 2014 to January 11, 2015.

Melissa, aged 24, who plays Snow White, said: “I can't wait to meet the whole cast and start rehearsing. The audiences will really be in for a treat this year.”

She started acting when she was 13 and made her TV debut in the BBC drama Filth: The Mary Whitehouse alongside Julie Walters.

She played Loretta in Hollyoaks and joined the soap as a regular in 2008 until she left in 2010.

Yoga enthusiast Melissa is now a sports and fitness model.

Kim, who plays Fairy Liquid, said: "There is always something magical about panto. It is often children's first taste of the theatre and we hope once they are hooked, they will keep coming back."

Charlie Griffiths, who made her screen debut in Children’s Ward, plays the dame.

Tickets are available from the box office on 0151 907 8360 or online at thebrindley.org.uk.
