Do you believe in fairies?
We do – and so we’re thrilled to announce our 2024 Christmas Pantomime, Peter Pan.
The classic tale of the boy who refused to grow up is a traditional favourite and for Christmas 2024 we are proud to present a swashbuckling spectacular for all the family.
The star cast is to be announced, and there will be some fantastic opportunities for local young performers as we start the search for lost boys and pirates!
