We are backstage with the cast and find out a lot more about this year’s eagerly awaited Rock ‘N’ Roll Panto – Dick Whittington and his Cat.
Featuring all of the cast - we chat about their hilarious characters, as well as what they love about this year’s panto . . AND, we get the inside scoop on some of the songs they’ll be playing live on stage!
There’s also a good helping of festive fun – with some terrible jokes, some curious festive habits and a quiz – where the cast go head-to-head– some of them slightly more competitive than others, we mention no names!
Dick Whittington and his Cat Rock ‘n’ Roll Panto runs from 23 Nov 2023 – 20 Jan 2024.
