a beautiful tale makes<br />
for a Beast of a panto!<br />
From the producers of 2016’s sensational<br />
production of Jack and the Beanstalk and 2015’s<br />
magical fairytale Cinderella comes Beauty and<br />
the Beast, an enchanting pantomime bursting<br />
with brilliant costumes, bewitching music,<br />
side-splitting slapstick and bags of audience<br />
participation. We’ve gaped at the gargantuan<br />
Giant, now marvel at the unbelievable Beast!<br />
Our story begins as a handsome prince is cursed<br />
to spend his life transformed into a hideous beast.<br />
Join us to discover if Beauty and her friends, the<br />
‘glamorous’ Dame Dorothy Do-It B.U.M (Buster of<br />
Unsightly Mess) and her wilfully witless son, Willy<br />
Do-It, can outwit the arrogant bully Eugene and<br />
his odious sidekick, Pimple, and lift the curse. Be<br />
whisked away on Dorothy’s turbocharged hoover<br />
and engage in a race against time filled with fun,<br />
adventure and laughter!<br />
Soap star Jonathan Wrather will be baiting the<br />
boos as baddie Eugene. The actor, best known for<br />
recently taking on the villainous role of Pierce Harris<br />
in Emmerdale says “doing panto is always enormous<br />
fun. Playing the baddie in one is great fun too as you<br />
get such strong reactions from the audience. Beauty<br />
and the Beast is a terrific story and I can’t wait for<br />
rehearsals to start.”<br />
