Sneak peek at Panto rehearsals at Salisbury Playhouse

Friday, 15 November 2024 06:00

Wiltshire Creative have provided a peek behind the curtains as rehearsals are well underway for this year's Pantomime, Sleeping Beauty.

The cast are preparing for the show to launch over the festive period with previews beginning on 30th November and the show running until 12th January 2025.

The show is once again written by the award-winning writing team of Plested, Brown, and Wilsher, and it sees the directing return of Ryan McBryde.

It stars Claudia Kariuki (Fairy Frappucino), Lottie Mae O’Kill (Princess Stella), Neal Craig (King Arthur Rightus), Scotty Armstrong (Dame Nanny Fanny Adams), Natasha O’Brien (Fairy Badflix), and Joseph Peacock (Mike the Magnificent).

There will be dazzling dances, laugh-out-loud hilarity and sparkling songs from the live band; it promises pure festive joy for the entire family!

Embark on an unforgettable adventure as Princess Stella falls under the wicked curse of evil Fairy Badflix, doomed to sleep for a hundred years. Can her loyal friends and family break the spell? Will the forces of good triumph over evil? And is there a charming prince in Salisburyshire ready to save the day?
