Oh no they aren’t….OH YES THEY ARE!! ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Rehearsals are in full swing for Theatr Clwyd’s Rock and Roll Panto ‘Beauty and The Beast’ which opens next week. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Following the cancellation of the live show in 2020, Theatr Clwyd dazzled audiences with a live-streamed performance of The Panto That Nearly Never Was. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

This very special production was not only available for personal viewing but was also available to view in care homes, foster homes, and hospitals throughout the region. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

This year the team are back with a bang, promising more laughter and rock and roll than ever before. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Directing the panto again this year is Theatr Clwyd’s very own Artistic Director Tamara Harvey, straight off the back of world premier Isla by Tim Price which runs until the 6 November and Curtain Up, which featured 15 plays by local writers. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Taking to the stage this year is panto dame favourite Phylip Harries (Nanna Nerys from Nercwys) alongside Alice McKenna (Morgiana the Witch), Daniel Lloyd (Willy), Ben Locke (Barry Island /Laughing Cavalier), Wesley Charles (Beast aka Daniel DeRuff), Luke Thornton (Bob/Hewolf), Lynwen Haf Roberts (Nessa/Mona Lisa), Maya Manuel (Fairy Clogau), Izzy Neish (Old Belle/Belle) and Seren Sandham-Davies (Stacey/Shewolf). ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

As ever the production will be created entirely in-house with sets and costumes being made on-site at the venue. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Tickets are selling fast for this year’s production, so be quick and book now. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Beauty and The Beast can be seen at Theatr Clwyd (Anthony Hopkins Theatre) from Friday 19 November 2021 to Saturday 15 January 2022. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
