I have seen all the pantomimes for several years and many shows. The best one for me was The Sound of Music – it was fantastic. I would love to go again when it opens next year. I have lived in Truro all my life and my friend Christine who has lived opposite for many years and we always wave to one another before we go to bed.

My husband when he was a child at the Regent cinema (which was the City Hall) was given chopped up swedes and carrot to eat instead of sweets as they were cheaper and they chomped them right through the show.

My husband’s friend worked for the gas works cleaning out the filters and when he was at the Regent everyone knew when he was there because he smelled of gas!

I performed in Ballet shows for Falmouth and Truro at the City Hall. My first performance was at aged 4 in 1959. I played the squirrel in the pantomime ‘Snow White’.
