PUPILS at Palacefields Primary School in Runcorn have teamed up to put on a production of Titanic. The school staged an evening of musical drama for parents and friends of the school. The musical project, based on the sinking of the ill-fated liner, was funded by Halton Borough Council through the Children and Young People Area Network for Palace fields. The school formed an Arts For All group which aims to bring art and drama to the wider public. Stephanie Scott, who helped out as stage manager, said: 'Everything came together really fast. Story continues ADVERTISEMENT 'We only rehearsed for a week and in that time we got a cast, a set and a production. 'People who had no experience were building sets and learning lines. It has been a great experience for everyone. 'The parents involved had never done anything like it before. 'As well as discovering talents they didn't know they had, all have said they couldn't wait to put on another show!' The set was made from bin-liners, builders' cast-offs and items donated by businesses and residents.
