Another opening, another show – this week it’s time to launch the Southport Dramatic Club panto! 

Our fine festive treat will open tonight (Friday, 16th December 2022), so if it is adventure and music you seek, come down to Southport Little Theatre theatre and meet those on duty to keep you all safe whilst you watch Sleeping Beauty. 

The strong lass herself has plenty of pluck but she will need her friends, your well wishes and luck.

Her aunt is so wicked and she has now shown that she will stop at nothing to remain on the throne. She’s not one to share, she wants to rule solo – thank goodness that Beauty has her loyal friend Polo!

She will need all her wit, and the courage of a lion as well as help from Dame Maris and her young son Brian. Is there a Prince? of course there is, and magical interventions from our Fairy Fizz.

You may fear that hope is starting to dwindle when Carabosse cracks out the dangerous spindle. But do not despair, you’d better not pout – it’s the season of hope and good always wins out.

So gather your loved ones, come and be wowed, be ready to laugh, and applaud and be loud. This is the most wonderful time of the year, and we are so pleased to be part of your cheer.
