Offering the audience an array of magical characters, popular songs, and a wonderful Christmas treat for people of all ages, it is a performance not to be missed.
The local MP commented: “The Towngate Theatre have a well deserved reputation for producing fantastic Christmas panto’s and Rapunzel does not disappoint! The cast are fantastic and you can’t help but leave with a smile on your face.”
“My congratulations go to all involved but particularly to Simon Fielding who is both the lead actor and director of a talented cast of performers.”
Basildon pantomime has grown into one of the most popular in the county, seeing over 25,000 people visit the theatre last Christmas. This year’s offering runs from 4th December to 5th January and is set to be a box office hit with some performances already sold out.
Mr Metcalfe added: “I would recommend this show to all of my constituents and I hope that as many people in South Basildon and East Thurrock as possible will get behind this fantastic local production.”
