Plans are in place for a socially distant charity concert at Paignton's Palace theatre - the first at the venue since performances were allowed to resume.

The show, next Sunday, will feature up and coming youngsters who've been attending lessons across South Devon - some performing for the first time.

Groups will sit in spaces apart from each other, there'll be temperature checks on arrival and theatre-goers will have to wear face masks.

Theatres are allowed to reopen despite today's new 'rule of six' coronavirus meeting restrictions, after Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden confirmed: "Indoor performances with socially distanced audiences continue to be permitted."
