Wiltshire Creative has revealed that Jasmine Triadi has won the Barbara Windsor Award for Best Principal Lead at the UK Pantomime Awards 2023.

The award comes for her performance in the titular role in Cinderella at Salisbury Playhouse. James Button was also nominated for his costume design in this production.

Su Pollard and Ian McKellen were among the winners at the Awards Ceremony on 11th April at Trafalgar Theatre, London.

Artistic Director of Wilshire Creative, Gareth Machin, said: “We are thrilled that Jasmine’s wonderful performance has been recognised at the UK Pantomime Awards. As a producing theatre, it is hugely exciting to see our in-house productions garner this national acknowledgement as we begin preparations for this year’s panto.

"Dick Whittington is one of the great panto stories and, penned by the same writers as Cinderella, promises to be a spectacular, fresh and sparkly production full of music, dance and laughter.”

Tickets are currently on sale for this year’s pantomime Dick Whittington, which boasts the same writing team as last year’s award-winning Cinderella.

Wiltshire Creative’s Pantomimes are produced in-house, with sets designed and made by the workshop department on-site.
