UP FRONT 1 Win a pair of tickets to be among the lucky people allowed to be immersed in a new show with a difference. Take On Me is set in the 1980s. It is being put on by theatre company Dante or Die over the weekend of 22-24 February, after hours at Everyone Active Acton Centre in partnership with Ealing Council. And local people will be involved in the cast, too, after the company called for residents to get involved. To take part in the competition to win tickets, visit ealingnewsextra.co.uk/ features/take-on-me Your winter winner This photo of a misty morning in Stockdove Way in Perivale by Lynn Wilson was voted by residents as the winner of our sixth Seasons of Ealing photography competition, for winter. It was chosen in a public poll (on our EalingLondon Facebook page) from a shortlist of six entries. The runner-up was by Neil Davies, and was a photo of steps outside St Mary’s Church next to Brent Valley Golf Course. It was a close call who won out of these front-runners and it was neck-and-neck until near the end.
