Hartlepool’s annual pantomime returns to the town hall this summer
Hartlepool is being transformed into a fairtyale this summer as the town hall’s annual pantomime returns.
Goldilocks and the Three Bears is heading to Hartlepool Town Hall Theatre, in Raby Road, from Saturday, July 25, until Monday, July 27.
Organised by AJ Theatrical Productions – the creative team behind Hartlepool’s annual Christmas pantomime at the Town Hall Theatre – this pantomime invites audiences into an "adventure like no other”.
At the heart of this story lies Betty Barnum’s Circus, a place full of magic, mischief and wonder, now under threat from the villainous Ivachesty Cough, whose plans could bring the Big Top crashing down.
As chaos builds, hope arrives in the most unexpected of ways, with Goldilocks stepping into the adventure alongside Haribo the Clown, a troupe of extraordinary circus performers and three very special bears who may just hold the key to saving the day.
Audiences can expect a fast-paced, high-energy production packed with musical numbers, jaw-dropping costumes, spectacular special effects and comedy that the whole family can enjoy.
Jacqui, producer for AJ Theatrical Productions, said: “I’m thrilled to be back at the Town Hall Theatre in our fifth successful year of producing family shows here with this brand new story.
“Being from Hartlepool, it’s a joy to write and create theatre for a venue which I grew up performing in, and I am honoured to continue this throughout the summer holidays and into Christmas, with our upcoming announcement of our Christmas pantomime very soon.”
