Youngsters at the Children's Hospital were treated to a colourful display of dancing and singing when performers from the Zambezi Express dropped in to see them.

The cast visited the play centre at the city centre hospital to entertain patients, siblings and staff.

Zambezi Express tells the story of a boy's pursuit of his footballing dream from the back streets of a Zimbabwe township to triumph in South Africa. It features energetic dancing, singing and acrobatics.

Members of the cast also spent time talking to the children after they had finished their performance.
