Dick Whittington – A traditional family pantomime
Directed by Alison Berrisford
featuring the Stage Door Dance Academy
Dick Whittington is a fantastic traditional family pantomime with lots of fun, laughter and audience participation.
The dastardly King Rat plans to use his hoards of rats in order to bring London to its knees and take it over. But he reckons without our brave hero Dick Whittington, who arrives in London penniless with his trusty cat Tommy by his side.
Dick finds work at Alderman Fitzwarren’s shop, which is in imminent danger of going bust, Fitzwarren entrusts Dick with guarding his safe containing the money to pay for his trip to Morocco but King Rat steals the money and frames Dick, much to the dismay of the Alderman’s beautiful daughter Alice who has fallen in love with our hero.
Dick is forced to leave London and the action moves onboard The Golden Duck, bound for Morocco and captained by the totally inept Captain Bilgewater. However Dick is discovered onboard and the ship is eventually wrecked in a storm brought about by King Rat, who has snuck aboard with his ratlings. But the good Fairy Bowbelle ensures that everyone lands safely on the shores of Morocco……Then the battle between good and evil really starts……
