The London Palladium pantomime is back for another year of big names, and even bigger costumes.
As a passionate cinephile this holiday season, I can’t help but get excited about the West End’s annual pantomime extravaganza. This year, to mark its 10-year milestone, they’re pulling out all the stops with an exceptionally enchanting rendition of “Sleeping Beauty”.
I’m thrilled to share that just recently, I learned about Catherine Tate, the renowned Doctor Who actress, stepping into the magical world as Carabosse, the Wicked Fairy. This marks her first foray into pantomime! What a captivating turn of events!
The actress is set to be accompanied by Julian Clary, Nigel Havers, along with several other stars who are well-known in both the West End productions and pantomime scenes.
The pantomime is consistently a major event on the Christmas schedule, and this year’s performance will last only for five weeks, starting from the 6th of December and ending on the 11th of January.
Be aware that tickets will sell out extremely quickly so here’s what you need to know.
