Christmas fun coming to Peterborough




An exciting line up of Christmas shows for all the family at the Key and New Theatres in Peterborough has been announced, with plenty to see and do.

Peterborough’s longest-running panto returns to the Key Theatre with a hilarious, fun-filled brand new family pantomime adventure Dick Whittington.

Starring Simon Aylin back by popular demand as Dick Whittington and David Griffin-Stephens as Dame Fanny Fitzbottom, Dick Whittington is the ‘purrrfect’ pantomime adventure that follows the hero to seek his fame, fortune and happiness in London Town.

With the help from the magical Fairy Bowbells and a trusted feline friend, can they stop the wicked Queen Rat from stealing all the sweets and taking over London?

With tickets selling fast, the Key Theatre has announced that due to popular demand, an additional week of performances has been programmed to extend the run until January 8, 2023, giving families even more chance to catch the pantomime.

In the Key Theatre Studio, younger imaginations will be catered for with a brand-new show for pre-school children, Santa’s New Sleigh, a festive play by Brad Fitt.

Over at the New Theatre, a stunning new show will play exclusively for Peterborough audiences as they are invited to escape to a mystical world of frozen beauty and magical adventure with Cirque Enchantment.

This magical production features superb choreography, breathtaking vocals and mesmerising circus performers.

Cirque Enchantment sees a little girl with a big imagination enter a frozen circus wonderland and a mysterious path of good versus evil, meeting an array of weird, wonderful and talented characters along the way.

All of this to an eclectic musical soundtrack including songs such as Relight My Fire by Take That and Lulu, Wings by Little Mix and Sweet Dreams by Eurythmics.

Tickets for these productions can be found online at keytheatre-peterborough.com and newtheatre-peterborough.com
