THOUSANDS of Thurrock schoolchildren will be crying "he's behind you!" and "oh, no it isn't!" at a pantomime put on by students at Palmers College in Grays. The Shoemaker's Daughter will be performed by pupils on the BTEC 2 Performing Arts course.

The performances, which count as part of the youngsters coursework, will be held on December 1, 6 and 8.

Fifteen students have been rehearsing for the performances which include acting, singing and dancing.

Up to 600 schoolchildren a day will go to Palmers to watch the show. Call 01375 370121.
