Let the festivities begin!

As the festive period is quickly approaching, what better way to get into the Christmas Spirit than a fantastic pantomime!

This December at Ellesmere Port Civic Hall, Anton Benson Productions are bringing Dick Whittington to the stage, along with a star-studded cast! Dick Whittington tells the tale of a young man who arrives in London expecting fame and fortune, but instead arrives to the opposite! When Dick gets a job in Professor Fitzwarren’s Emporium he finds love when he sees the Professor’s daughter Alice!

But will Dick Whittington find true love and live happily ever after? Don’t worry we won’t give the ending away! Dick meets a number of characters on his journey to find love and fortune, but will the evil King Rat stand in his way? This show is filled with heart-stopping, show-stopping moments, and we haven’t even mentioned the cast line-up yet!

Starring in this year’s panto at Ellesmere Port Civic Hall is the magical Danny Lee Grew as Dick Whittington, the hilarious Jimmy Cricket as Professor Fitzwarren, Benidorm’s Hannah Hobley as Alice Fitzwarren AND The Chase’s Mark Labbett aka The Beast as King Rat!

With plenty of giggles and laughs throughout, you and the family won’t want to miss out on this fantastic show!
