Creatives at Campus West will discover this week whether the Welwyn Garden City pantomime has won a coveted national award.
The annual Great British Pantomime Awards were due to be held at The Shaw Theatre, London, today (Sunday, April 26).
Welwyn Hatfield production Snow White was shortlisted for one of the prestigious panto awards.
