Twelve-year-old Andrew Glick made his first appearance as Page to the Lilac Fairy at the Royal Opera House, in Covent Garden, London, on Saturday.

Andrew, who lives in, Goring, said: “I was very excited, it’s been really cool. My first show was amazing, it was nerve-wracking because it’s such a big stage, it’s scary with so many people watching.
