Overview

Dick Whittington’s Pussy has gone missing, which is causing him some distress. He’s come to London to search for his soulmate – but the fact he’s dressed like the Principal Boy from a panto, complete with skirt and long boots, leads to a few misunderstandings among the locals.

Featuring characters from the classic story – Sarah the Cook, Idle Jack, King Rat, Alice, idle Jack and more – this not-for-children re telling of adventures is a must for your Christmas outing (oh yes it is…)” OVER 18’s ONLY

You will arrive Saturday afternoon where you will be greeted by Dick and fellow cast members who will check you into your rooms.

Cream Tea will be served at 4pm with the help of Dick and the Team. At 8pm the Show will commence, and you will enjoy a fabulous 3 Course Meal, followed by a Disco until 12am.

This is a ticketed event, and is not Spice Exclusive, so will go ahead even if numbers are low. If you would be interested in hosting, please get in touch and I will arrange a substantial discount for the event. There is a dinner only option with arrival from 7pm
