Wiltshire Creative today announces cast and creatives for this year’s festive pantomime Sleeping Beauty at Salisbury Playhouse. Writers Plested, Brown & Wilsher are returning to Salisbury for a third year following the success of last year’s Dick Whittington, which was nominated for Best Pantomime at the 2024 UK Pantomime Association Awards.
Ryan McBryde returns to Salisbury Playhouse to direct Claudia Kariuki (Fairy Frappucino), Lottie Mae O’Kill (Princess Stella), Neal Craig (King Arthur Rightus), Scotty Armstrong (Dame Nanny Fanny Adams), Natasha O’Brien (Fairy Badflix), and Joseph Peacock (Mike the Magnificent).
The creative team is completed by Designer Katie Lias, Lighting Designer Nic Farman, Sound Designer Michael Scott, Choreographer Khiley Willams, Musical Supervisor & Orchestrator Paul Herbert and Casting Director Natalie Gallacher.
Embark on an unforgettable adventure as Princess Stella falls under the wicked curse of evil Fairy Badflix, doomed to sleep for a hundred years. Can her loyal friends and family break the spell? Will the forces of good triumph over evil? And is there a charming prince in Salisburyshire ready to save the day?
Sleeping Beauty opens at Salisbury Playhouse on 4 December, with previews from 30 November, and runs until 12 January 2025.
