Big laughs, big magic and big family fun in a dazzling pantomime packed with music, mischief and festive sparkle!
The cast of Sleeping Beauty, this year’s pantomime at Bromley’s Churchill Theatre, came together to kick off the countdown to pantomime season on a magical trip out to a fairytale castle! Radio and TV favourite Vernon Kay was joined by panto favourite and Balamory’s PC Plum, Andrew Agnew, as Dame Bella More and a stellar line-up of West End performers: Rebekah Lowings as Carabosse, James Bisp as Prince Stephen, Jayme-Lee Zanoncelli as Fairy Florence and Sophie Naglik as Princess Aurora.
When the wicked fairy Carabosse’s evil curse causes the princess to prick her finger on a spinning wheel and fall into an enchanted sleep, can anyone rescue her from the magical slumber before it is too late? Join Princess Beauty, her friends, and some fabulously silly characters as they battle the forces of evil and discover the true power of love, laughter and a happily-ever-after.
Vernon returns to panto land in the comedy role of Billy following his award-winning debut in 2023, which saw him crowned Best Newcomer at the UK Pantomime Awards, and said: ‘Once you’ve caught the panto bug, there’s no going back! I absolutely loved my time in High Wycombe, so when the chance came to head to Bromley this Christmas it was an easy ‘yes’. I love the madness of panto – the singing, the laughs, the audience shouting back at you, and seeing families make Christmas memories together. I’m already counting down the days and promise we’ll have plenty of fun. Oh yes we will!’
Produced by the award-winning Imagine Theatre, Sleeping Beauty will be packed with dazzling costumes, spectacular scenery, side-splitting comedy and show-stopping songs. This high-quality production, presented by the award-winning Imagine Theatre, promises festive fun for all ages. Special effects will be provided by Burnt Toast FX. Perfect for children, parents, grandparents and everyone in between, it’s the festive highlight that will leave the whole family wide awake with excitement.
