Join Dick Whittington on the purr-fect pantomime adventure!
Set sail with Dick Whittington as he journeys to Bristol to seek his fortune where the streets are rumoured to be paved with gold! With his trusty companion, Tommy the Cat, always by his side, Dick soon finds himself caught up in a whirlwind journey packed with magic, mischief and mayhem.
Along the way he makes new friends with the tenacious Alice Fitzwarren, the loveable yet silly Idle Jack and the hilarious, larger-than-life Seamstress Sarah. But danger is never far behind, as the wicked Queen Rat and her gang of sneaky ratlings plot to derail Dick's plans on an adventure on the high seas.
From bustling markets to stormy seas, shipwrecks to mysterious jungles, expect boo-worthy villains, jokes by the boatload, toe-tapping tunes and plenty of audience participation.
