Dick Whittington cast members came together for the first time this week (3 October), to launch this year’s spectacular pantomime at Birmingham Hippodrome.
The UK’s biggest regional panto features an all-star cast with Marti Pellow as The Ratman, Matt Slack as Dick Whittington, Dr Ranj as Spirit of the Bells, Suzanne Shaw as Alice, Doreen Tipton as Doreen the Cat and Andrew Ryan as Felicity Fitzwarren.
Later on in the day Birmingham Hippodrome opened its doors to Hippodrome Friends for an exclusive event which included an audience Q&A as well as an opportunity to meet cast members ahead of December’s production.
The production follows Dick Whittington and his trusty cat as he seeks fame, fortune, and happiness journeying to become the Lord Mayor in an action-packed adventure full of laughter, music and dance.
Featuring sets and costumes from The London Palladium, spectacular special effects and plenty of audience participation, Dick Whittington is the perfect chance for audiences to come together and share the magic of live theatre.
Dick Whittington will run at Birmingham Hippodrome from Saturday 17 December 2022 and will play until Sunday 29 January 2023.
