TWO stars of an upcoming Henley Children’s Theatre production turned up to rehearsal in their cadet uniforms on Sunday having just participated in the Remembrance Service in Henley.

Erin Aiken and Madeleine Chandrapal, who will play the roles of Squire Hardup and Jack in the upcoming production of Jack and the Beanstalk at the Kenton Theatre, are both cadets and had been on “poppy duties” in the town.

The pantomime will be staged on January 2, 3 and 4.
