Festive panto in Spalding comes with a dancing dog

What can audiences at this year’s South Holland Centre panto expect? Well, a dancing dog, brilliant special effects, and eye-catching costumes and scenery for starters (plus a bad joke or two).

Polka Dot Pantomimes is putting on Beauty and the Beast at the Spalding venue. It follows the big success of Peter Pan last year and Polka Dot is promising people to expect even bigger and better than ever in 2016.

The panto’s run is from Saturday, December 10, to New Year’s Eve.

spalding-panto-2016Beautiful Belle is being played by returning star Emma Wilson, who has many theatre and stage credits to her name.
Also returning to the South Holland stage this year is Danielle Pedel. After playing the mischievous fairy Tinkerbell in Peter Pan, this year she is Fairy Flambé.
With a host of other notable acting talent alongside professional dancers and local youngsters, audiences are sure to be enthralled.

A spokesman for the production said: “Polka Dot Pantomimes and the South Holland Centre have built an amazing reputation of producing traditional family pantomimes with a modern twist that boast excellent production values, so if you don’t want to miss out on this Beast of a pantomime make sure you book your tickets now!”

Full-price cost is £14.50, for over-60s, under-16s, disabled and companion and full-time students a ticket is £13.50 and a family of four (at least two under-16s) is £52. There are discounts for groups, schools and families.
