[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Star of BBC children’s TV show Let’s Play and Time For School, Rebecca Keatley, has been confirmed to appear in the 2016 Lichfield Garrick annual pantomime.
Rebecca, adored by pre-schoolers everywher, will be making her Lichfield debut and is incredibly excited to perform as Princess Moonbeam in Sleeping Beauty at the Lichfield Garrick Theatre in Staffordshire.
Rebecca commented:
“I’m delighted to be spending the festive season in Lichfield. I’m looking forward to spreading some fairy magic at the Lichfield Garrick and taking part in this spellbinding Christmas pantomime.”
You can see the superbly engaging and comedic acting talents of Rebecca on display on our showreel video below.
NOTHING LIKE A LOCAL DAME
Also making into the leading line up of the Lichfield panto is local actor Sam Rabone. Sam, from Sutton Coldfield, will be joining the cast playing the Dame, Nurse Nellie
Sam has built up a sparliking repuatation as a leading Dame in pantomime’s across the UK, and thrilled to be coming to Lichfield.
Sam Rabone said:
“I’m over the moon to play the dame at the Lichfield Garrick! Having travelled the country from Scotland to Somerset, Lichfield is only a stone throw away from my home town of Sutton Coldfield. People of Lichfield be prepared to see a show with more laughter than ever before!”
NEW PRODUCERS
The 2016 pantomime at the Staffordshire theatre will this year be produced by a new team, Evoloution Productions, who also stage the annual seasonal spectaular at the Severn Theatre in Shrewsbury, as well as many more across the country.
Lichfield Garrick has teamed up with Evolution Pantomimes run by Telford born panto producing veteran Paul Hendy – probably better known as a TV presenter, having presented shows such as ITV’s ‘Wheel of Fortune’, ‘The Disney Club’ and ‘Don’t Try This At Home’ with Davina McCall.
the Lichfield venues long standing Panto man, (or should that be Dame), Ian Adams finished his 9th panto at the venue in 10 years this last season (2015), and moves over to ‘strut his corsets’ at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre for their 2016 panto.
So this means The Lichfield Garrick gets a fresh team to pull out all the seasonal stops. Should be a breeze though, as Evolution Productions, who also produce the annual pantomime at Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury, are well known for creating shows with extremely high production values created for people looking for a panto spectacular. Should be a treat.
The brand new pantomime partnership between Evolution and the Garrick promises to bring the most spectacular pantomime ever to Lichfield.
Other recent cast announcements for Sleeping Beauty include Shropshire based kids stand up and children’s author Ian Billings
Booking is now open for Sleeping Beauty at the Lichfield Garrick – and it’s never to early to bag those perfect seats.
Sleeping Beauty runs at the Lichfield Garrick from 1 to 31 December 2016
