He will be joined by children’s TV presenter Naomi Wilkinson, who plays the lead-role, and North Somerset’s dame extraordinaire Chris Harris.

The traditional pantomime season would not be complete without the famous tale of Dick Whittington, a man who goes from rags to riches.

He travels to London after hearing the streets are made of gold and embarks on an unforgettable journey full of adventure and romance.

Performances run from today (Thurs) until January 22 at the main house at the Theatre Royal Bath. Tickets, priced £7-25, are available from the box office on 01225 448844 or online at www.theatreroyal.org.uk
