It was first performed in 1997 and is being re-staged for the group’s 20th anniversary.

The play is about a 17-year-old mum, her baby, her mates and what happens to them one freezing winter night when they are visited by goblins.

Ashton Group’s stage manager George Floyd said: “We’re delighted to be coming back to The Continental.
