The Christmas Eve Special of Dick Whittington has now ended. You can still enjoy the magic with our On Demand version here.
Pack up your hanky and join plucky Dick Whittington and his trusty cat on their quest for fame and fortune. Their magical rags to riches tale takes us to London where the streets are paved with gold.
The legendary Playhouse panto returns full of sparkle, excitement and fun. Our hero’s incredible escapades take him onto the High Seas, into battle with the evil King Rat and see him fall head over heels in love with his boss’s daughter Alice. All the while the magical Bow Bells are whispering his destiny – to become Mayor of London!
Packed with dazzling dance, a brilliant live band and swashbuckling adventure, the show reunites us with Nottingham’s favourite panto dame John Elkington, who’ll be serving up some comedy chaos as Sarah the Cook.
Full of fun, singing and lots of action – we promise to have you buzzing from a fantastic, festive night out.
