Hughie (11) of Higham, won the Pride of Lancashire Award, along with his best pal Freddie Xavi, after they raised over £200,000 for children's hospitals after Hughie was diagnosed with leukaemia.

Hughie and Trixie are now preparing to appear on stage together next week in the Burnley theatre school Basics production of the smash hit musical Sister Act.

Trixie, who is currently studying Musical Theatre at The Manchester College, plays the role of Sister Mary Patrick in the show that tells the hilarious story of Deloris whose life takes a surprising turn when she witnesses a murder. Under protective custody she is hidden in the one place she won't be found – a convent!

Sister Act is Hughie's first senior show and he is playing not one but three roles.

The £30,000 production, which runs from Tuesday to Saturday, October 11th to 15th, at Pendle Hippodrome Theatre, looks set to be runaway success. Tickets are on sale at www.basicsjuniortheatre.co.uk
