Our Next Production - Dick Whittington - Jan/Feb 2025 |
“Dick Whittington” is a favourite pantomime with lots of twists and turns, and many different locations ranging from the sewers of London to the Sultan’s Palace in Morocco, via the good ship Lollipop.
On the way, the goodies meet the nastiest of villain of them all in Queen Rat. Dick (with his faithful cat Tommy) and Alice are the romantic interests, but they are also true heroes – him being the archetypal rags to riches country boy, and she the feisty London girl who disguises herself as a boy to stowaway on board the ship.
The comedy is carried by the outrageous Sarah the Cook, and her stupid son Idle Jack. There is both knockabout and verbal humour, loads of audience participation, and several set-piece comic routines including the classic Cooking Scene.
