Dick Whittington

From Fri 28 Nov View Venues, Dates & Times

Telling the terrific tale of a young man who heads for London in search of fame and fortune, Dick Whittington makes for a fantastic pantomime - not least because of the top adventures in which the happy-go-lucky title character finds himself involved...

If you’re a dyed-in-the-wool fan of the Theatre Severn panto experience, you’ll be delighted to know that this year’s offering is following the usual recipe for success. 


What does that mean in practice? Well, to put some meat on the bone, it means Telford-born Paul Hendy is writing it, Evolution is producing it, and Brad Fitt is both starring in it and taking the directorial reins. 
“There are pantos out there that go a bit near the knuckle - but I don’t think ours does,” says Brad. “I would never tell a joke that was offensive or rude. Sometimes, you can use a double entendre - but then that’s in your mind, that’s not me. You have to blame yourself!”
