A special concert will be held in memory of a champion of musical theatre in the Lancaster and Morecambe area.
'Hey Old Friend: A Tribute to Sharon Bell' will take place at the Lancaster Grand on Saturday October 3.
Sharon, who died in 2025, was a director, choreographer, teacher and performer.
She worked with groups including About Theatre, Morecambe Warblers, LADOS, Barrow Operatic and Dramatic Society, LAMATA and many more.
The concert is being organised by some of her friends and will raise funds for Moya Cole Hospice and CancerCare.
It will include performances from some of the musical theatre organisations Sharon worked with.

Lancaster Red Rose AODS, posting in tribute to Sharon in November 2025, said she "was loved by everyone she met, and was such an inspiration to both adults and children alike in the world of dance and theatre in the area".
"Sharon touched so many hearts and will always be remembered for her warmth and kindness."
A post from the Lancaster Grand said: "It promises to be a moving and uplifting night, filled with performances, stories and shared memories, all in celebration of Sharon’s lasting impact on the theatre community she helped shape.
"A night of love, legacy and community."
The concert starts at 7.30pm.
Tickets are available HERE.
