A local amateur theatre company has raised enough money to give away 79 tickets to young carers in Fife for its upcoming show, Anastasia.
The Lochgelly and District Amateur Musical Association (LADAMA) Theatre School said this is thanks to generous donations from individuals and small companies.
Anastasia will be performed by the theatre group at Lochgelly Centre from Thursday 26 to Saturday June 28.
A spokesperson for LADAMA, Craig Tait, said: "This will be a memorable musical which is filled with laughter, suspense, comedy, and enchanting music."
The show will tell the story of the hunt for the lost Russian princess Anastasia Romanov.
Craig explained: "Disappearing after the fall of the Russian Tsar, her father Nicholas II, and Bolshevik revolution in 1917, the rumours of her potential escape circulated in the 1920s.
"Anastasia's grandmother, the Dowager Empress Marie, has lost faith in the search as many imposters try to gain the reward for Anastasia's safe return.
"Many years later an amnesiac young woman, Anya, hopes to find some trace of her past by siding with two con men, Vlad and Dmitry, who wish to take advantage of her resemblance to Anastasia to dupe the empress, with an ending that has to be seen to be believed."
As part of the company's community involvement programme, they reached out to businesses and individuals and gave them a chance to sponsor a ticket for one of Fife's Young Carers.
This has allowed 79 young carers and their families to attend the show with a snack provided.
The company said that there is still an opportunity to sponsor a young carer's ticket by reaching out to the theatre school.
Tickets for the show are available to onfife.com
