Starring Marti Pellow, Julian Clary, Lee Mead, Matt Slack and Andrew Ryan.
Wet Wet Wet frontman Marti Pellow here makes his pantomime debut – and will no doubt be helped to settle right in by the guiding hand of panto veteran Julian Clary. Former Joseph star Lee Mead, meanwhile, takes on the role of the lad himself, while Matt Slack and Andrew Ryan play Wishee Washee and Widow Twankey respectively.
Stunning 3D effects and a Santa’s sackworth of quality comedy – both mainstay ingredients in the Hippodrome’s winning recipe for pantomime fun – are also present and correct in 2015’s blockbuster offering.
