The Atkinson in Southport has announced its 2024 Christmas pantomime as Sleeping Beauty. Working alongside KD Theatre Productions Ltd, the thriving arts centre continues its Christmas tradition of staging a spectacular festive production throughout December.

KD Theatre wowed audiences at The Atkinson last year with their giant production of Jack and the Beanstalk:

Families will be pleased to see a variety of matinee and evening performances available for Sleeping Beauty at The Atkinson, with early-bird tickets on sale until the end of June 2024. The venue also provides a range of accessible seating that can be booked directly from the Box Office, as well as staging relaxed and captioned performances that ensure everyone feels welcome and comfortable when visiting the theatre.

 Daniel Bell, Managing Director / Producer, KD Theatre Productions Ltd –

We cannot wait to return to The Atkinson this Christmas with our ‘Sleeping Beauty’ panto. The audiences in Southport are so much fun and this year they can expect plenty of participation, festive flair, and spectacular storylines! We’ve got some magical surprises up our sleeve too…

Marie Kenny, Programme Manager, The Atkinson –

Staging a Christmas pantomime allows us to engage with the local community across Sefton at the most wonderful time of the year. KD Theatre Productions Ltd blew our panto audiences away last year. I’m looking forward to working alongside KD to bring a spellbinding production of Sleeping Beauty to The Atkinson this Christmas.
