Theatre Severn announces title of this year’s pantomime: “Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan!”
Theatre Severn, Shrewsbury has announced the title of 2021’s pantomime will be the spectacular, swashbuckling “Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan!”
Following the postponement of last year’s pantomime “Beauty and the Beast”, and further discussions with producers Evolution, a change of title has been agreed which will see pantomime return to Shrewsbury bigger and better than ever before. Once again, the show will star Shropshire’s legendary pantomime dame, Brad Fitt as Mrs Smee, and will be written by regular pantomime producer Paul Hendy.
David Jack, Shropshire Council’s theatre services manager, said:-
“The Government’s roadmap announcement on 22 February 2021 has given us plenty of optimism for the year ahead, and we can’t wait to share a magical panto season with everyone again. We’ve been so grateful for the understanding and support we have received from our audiences following last year’s postponement. Peter Pan will feature everything you’ve come to know and love about Theatre Severn pantomimes, and more!
