PANTO
Every child knows that Pantomime is an integral part of Christmas and this year is no exception. For the fifth year running the Hazlitt Theatre has teamed up with Blue Genie Entertainment to bring us a superb production – this year it is a real children’s favourite ‘Dick Whittington’ starring CBeebies presenter Cerrie Burnell as Alice Fitzwarren and ‘Any Dream will Do’ runner up Keith Jack playing the title role of Dick Whittington. This classic tale follows the trial and tribulations Jack faces from his rags to riches life with a good dollop of comedy and romance thrown in along the way. Maidstone is in for a treat as Blue Genie is well known for creating colourful and fun productions. Producer Gary Telfer said “We’re really looking forward to producing ‘Dick Whittington’ this year, which has to be one of the most traditional pantomimes of them all. It’s got a great cast of TV stars and an amazing Live Band. We know how popular the Hazlitt Theatre pantomime was last year, in fact most of the shows sold out so we’re expecting another busy year.”
