Youngsters were treated to a night of glitz and glamour as the Nine Lives Theatre Company hosted its annual Cats Whiskers Film and Awards Ceremony.

The event, held on September 3 at The Luxe Cinema in Wisbech, saw students, parents and tutors of the company dress in their finery for a Hollywood style red carpet event – although this year’s carpet was blue to match the company’s colours.

The students sat through a showcase of their year’s work, including three professionally shot and edited films which they had written themselves.

Michele Larkin, head of the company, said: “The evening was a great success and a wonderful way to celebrate another year of Nine Lives.

“We’d especially like to thank new manager, Nathan Smith, and new owner of The Luxe, Adam Cunard, for their hard work to make sure the evening ran smoothly, along with their friendly and personal approach which made the evening more special.”
