Hide AdGraeme Muncer, who during the summer featured in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Theatre Royal, Brighton in front of sell-out audiences, is the director this year.
“I am really excited about this year’s show,” he said. “Because of the number of actors that we needed, I managed to persuade a few of the actors who I performed with in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to join us for our annual pantomime.
“Beauty and the Beast is a classic love story which is perfect for pantomime. It will give our wonderful cast of actors, dancers and singers a chance to display their full range of talents. It will also create some new challenges for our costume department!
“We have been rehearsing since September and I am convinced that we will be putting on an outstanding show for everyone.
