This Christmas, you’re invited to the pantomime of your dreams, Sleeping Beauty at Middleton Arena.

Starring BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Karen Hauer* as Carabosse, CBBC's Chris Johnson as The Castle Clown, X Factor's Sean Smith as Prince, the hilarious Mark Slowey as Queen Ruby, singing sensation Lauren McCrory as Princess Beauty, and introducing Rosie Winter as The Fairy.

Once upon a time, in a Pantoland far away, a beautiful Princess is cursed by the evil Carabosse to perish on her 21st birthday by pricking her finger on a spinning wheel. Thanks to Beauty’s fairy, she only falls into a deep sleep that can be broken by her one true love. Will her handsome prince come to her rescue, fight the dragon, destroy Carabosse and save the day? There’s only one way to find out…

This magical pantomime features great songs from our live band, dazzling dance routines, stunning scenery, beautiful costumes and incredible circus acts. It will be an unforgettable experience for children and adults alike.

So, make sure you book your tickets for this magical adventure!
