AFTER the odd report of big cats around the Shropshire and North Wales countryside recently, Oswestry’s Cae Glas Park will be hosting a huge one next weekend.
This is because The Attfield Theatre is returning to the town centre stage with their third ‘Panto in the Park' - this time in the form of ‘Puss in Boots’.
Performing this coming Saturday, July 15 and Sunday, July 16 at 2pm and 5pm, this free family-friendly event tells the classic tale of Tom, Puss and their friends as they embark on a gripping and comical adventure in the land of Shoeshine.
Debbie Jones, chairman of the Attfield Theatre, said they were looking forward to putting on the free shows.

She added: “Here we are again bringing live family entertainment to the park with ‘Puss in Boots’ – a free fun-filled afternoon whatever the weather.”
The Attfield Theatre began its pantomime performances after lockdown when local, live theatre and entertainment was limited.
Debbie added: “The whole idea of Panto in the Park came about following lockdown when theatres across the country were closed.

“The Attfield wanted to bring the experience of live theatre back to Oswestry in the safest way possible, which was outdoors in the park.
“With the support of Oswestry Town Council, we have continued to be able to make this a free event for the community.”
