You can be sure that Pontefract Pantomime Society will give a very well rehearsed production full of good well sung musical

numbers which the cast and chorus loved to perform. This pantomime by Alan Frayn has all the necessary ingredients that a good traditional pantomime should have and was well produced by Jo Sykes and David Hookham.

Jo Sykes as well as directing also played the wicked Queen Rat with great relish. Samantha Whitford as Dick played the role with great style and confidence and was well supported by Eloise Lovell as Alice. Vince Empsall as the Dame role Dolly Dumpling had a number of eyecatching costumes that added much to the panto. All the supporting cast were of the general good standard.

The stage sets and lighting and very colourful costumes all added up to a most enjoyable pantomime.
