Details

Location: Wykham Theatre, Wykham Park Academy
Address: Ruskin Road Banbury

Nearly 50 local people – adults and children alike – will be taking to the stage, as one of Banbury’s leading independent theatre makers, Avocet Theatre Company, stage their version of Sleeping Beauty which promises to be Banbury’s biggest pantomime yet!

When the King (Louise Nunneley) and Queen (Mo Westworth) refuse to invite the wicked Carabosse (Ben Coleman) to their daughter’s Christening, the evil sorceress vows her revenge. Unaware of the curse, Princess Rose (Katie Crowther) grows up under the watchful eye of Fairy Glamorous (Gill Crowther) and her useless apprentice Fairy Tragic (Sam Brittain and Izzy Hudson on alternating performances) and her friends Muddles (Alex Wylie-Howkins) and Lady Violet (Caitlin Gold). When the dashing Prince Julian (Billy Lambert) rides into town – along with his hard of hearing bodyguard Peggy Pardon (Jennie Healy) – the Princess believes she has found her true love, unaware that Carabosse and her sidekick Spindle (Myron Byfield) are ready to pounce, forcing the Princess into an endless sleep whilst ensuring a reign of darkness sweeps the kingdom.

Sleeping Beauty: A Musical-Pantomime takes place at Wykham Theatre, Wykham Park Academy, Banbury on Thursday 22nd June 2023 (7.30pm), Friday 23rd June 2023 (7.30pm and Saturday 24th June 2023 (2.30pm & 7.30pm).
