Bridlington Spa has announced which panto will bring Christmas fun back to the seaside venue after last year's empty stage.

The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan will run from December 14 to January 3 with Michael Auger of Britain's Talent winning Musical Theatre Group Collabro in the title role.

He will be joined by Joe Standerline as Dame Nora Bone and Troy Harris who was Buttons in the Spa's last pantomime, Cinderella in 2019.

General manager of Bridlington Spa, Mark Lonsdale said: “It’s never too early to talk about Christmas and Panto!

"We’re delighted to see the return of shows after what has been an incredibly difficult 12 months for the theatre and arts industry.

"Watching everyone come together this Christmas to enjoy the traditions of pantomime will bring some much needed festive cheer, and for some, it will be their first experience of live theatre.”

Pantomime Producer Paul Holman said: “Panto is the perfect tonic for the tough times we’ve all endured recently.

"We are so happy to be back at Bridlington Spa at the most special time of year and to be bringing some long-awaited and much-needed magic, laughter and the sense of community that we have all been missing so much”.
