A BROTHER and sister from Wirral were among those treated to a trip behind the scenes at a Liverpool theatre.

Visually impaired Jamie, 11, and five-year-old Kayleigh Davies from Eastham joined more than 100 other blind or partially-sighted children with their families and school groups, for a backstage tour of Jack and the Beanstalk, at the Playhouse.

Organised by Action for Blind People, Jamie and Kayleigh met the cast before the show, were invited on stage for a touch tour and handled the props used in the play.
