Sat 12 Dec 2020 - Sun 3 Jan 2021
Theatre Royal and Concert Hall
Don’t get caught snoozing this festive season, and grab your tickets for this year’s unmissable, socially distanced Theatre Royal pantomime, Sleeping Beauty, adapted especially for Christmas 2020.
Starring Paul Chuckle, Nottingham-favourite Ben Nickless, Flawless and David Robbins with last year's Cinderella cast; Kimberly Blake, Hannah Grace Lawson and Jack McNeill.
The pantomime will be performed in one act to minimise the need for audiences to move around the building but will still be packed full of comedy routines, audience-safe participation, and all the unmissable magic that Nottingham audiences have come to expect from the Theatre Royal’s annual festive pantomime.
Supported by The National Lottery who have helped to ensure panto can return to the Theatre Royal this year.
