Organiser Christina Ruby Willow said: “The audience didn’t stop laughing from start to finish, sometimes unintentionally.

“Talented members of our group put on the show to raise funds for the Spilsby Theatre Restoration Fund. Newton and Fallowell Estate Agents Spilsby came forward and offered to match the money we raised.

“We made over £250 in ticket sales, a raffle and Christmas cake auction and I’m delighted with the generosity of Newton and Fallowell who have donated £250 making the final amount raised to over £500.
