Dick
Whittington and his cat is one of the best know and loved pantos on the
professional stage.
King Rat is the best ever villain in all of panto land. Together with
his attendant little rats. This gives a chance for many younger members
of the company to have a stage roll for the first time. Fill the stage
with rats of all shapes and sizes.
Rizi
the Rat is a young trainee, working with King Rat. Trying to be evil,
but never quite get's it right. (There to reel in the kids).
Sara the Cook is the Dame with Alice Fitzwarren as Dick's love interest.
Dick and his cat go from London's Fitzwarren store, via the Saucy Sal
ship, across the ocean to the exotic shores of Morocco, causing mayhem
as they go.
As always in my pantomimes the audience is invited to join in as much
as possible. There are specific characters who invite them to do this
yet still keep the story running forward. A couple of standard gags form
part of the storyline together with a bit of slapstick.
Will Dick become Lord Mayor of London and marry the lovely Alice? What
do you think?
Approximately 1 hour 45 mins of stage time. (Not including the interval)
