Salisbury's Panto rehearsals are well under way

Thursday, 9 November 2023 00:00

The cast starring in Wiltshire Creative's Pantomime are hard at work rehearsing for this year's show, Dick Whittington.

This year's Panto launches on Saturday, 25th November and runs through until January 7th 2024 and promises to be a lot of fun.

Join Dick Whittington and his cool cat Cosmo, on the journey from Salisburyshire to London, in search of fame and fortune.

In the big city, disaster strikes, and the streets aren’t paved with gold but overrun with rodents. Can Dick defeat Evil King Rat and save the city of London? Join us this Christmas to find out!

Expect exciting escapades, dazzling dances, and sparkling songs from our live band, which will have you singing and dancing all the way home.

Christmas is always a special time at the theatre, and Salisbury Playhouse is famous for its award-winning pantomimes such as Cinderella (2022/23), Robin Hood (2019/20), and Beauty and the Beast (2018/19).

This Panto is the purr-fect treat for the whole family!

Tickets are available on the Wiltshire Creative website - https://www.wiltshirecreative.co.uk/events/dick-whittington
