Act fast if you want to be first to see our spectacular family Christmas panto!

Published Friday, 8th December 2023

There's now just a couple of days to go until the start of Hartlepool’s fabulous family Christmas pantomime Peter Pan and the Lost Boys.

This dazzling show is set to enchant audiences when it flies in to the Town Hall Theatre from Sunday 10th to Thursday 28th December.

If you want to be among the very first to see it, you’ll need to move fast – tickets are now limited for the preview shows this Sunday at 1pm and 5pm and Monday at 6pm!

Peter Pan and the Lost Boys is the fifth family panto produced in the town by AJ Theatrical Productions and in this sparkling re-imagining of the classic tale, we join Peter some years later as he embarks on a new adventure.

The dastardly Captain Hook is back and ready for revenge, so Peter and his friends are in for a wild ride in a show which features a sparkling cast of Hartlepool panto favourites.

There’ll be side-splitting comedy from local legend and Britain’s Got Talent finalist Danny Posthill as deckhand Starkey and the irrepressible Gary Martin Davis - the North’s favourite dame - as Mrs Smee.

Great British Pantomime Award nominee Luke Adamson takes the title role of Peter Pan, while Hartlepool’s favourite baddy Anthony Turner – boo! hiss! - is back as Hook and Ruff Diamond are in dazzling form as The Lost Boys.

Add to this AJ Productions’ trademark spectacular scenery and costumes and magical special effects plus some of the biggest musical numbers in panto land and lots of audience participation, and this is one show not to be missed.
