Life Act performed Friendship Is A Challenge for more than 100 pupils at Dalton Listerdale Junior and Infant.

The inclusive group — part of Open Minds Theatre Company — comprises about 20 performers aged between 20 and 80.

Open Minds artistic director Steve Rogers said: “We place great stress on the professionalism and discipline of the company.

“We believe passionately that we should not accept barriers to what can be done. They are actors representing OMTC. They are also role models.”
