Christmas in Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole

Pantomimes & Christmas Shows

Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum, Bournemouth’s NO.1 GIANT Panto is full of festive fun!
With incredible 3D special effects, Jack and the Beanstalk opens on Saturday 7 December.

Behold, this fee-fi-fo-fabulous reimagined romp through a classic tale you thought you knew!
When a heinous henchman kidnaps a cow and a princess from the downtrodden town of Boggy Bottom, young Jack finds himself on an adventure he thought only existed in story books!
Expect a wholesome hero, a punch-packing princess, a feisty fairy, a simple sibling, a witty widow, a slippery servant, a kind-hearted king… and a cow with some beef. Oh… and a very large magical plant, of course!

From the Coronation Street cobbles to the sands of Bournemouth, soap star Calum Lill will star the villainous Fleshcreep, packed with a side order of dastardly deeds and mischief. Best known for his role as the Corrie bad boy Joel Deering, Calum has also been in Hollyoaks, Holby City, and Doctors.
Best known for presenting Milkshake! on Channel 5, panto favourite, David Ribi, bounds back to the Bournemouth Pavilion this festive season to take on the role of Jack.
Bournemouth’s favourite comic Noel Brodie returns as Silly Simon bringing huge laughs and lots of mayhem as he tries to help his brother Jack on his quest to save the Princess.
This production is full of sparkling sets, lavish costumes, amazing song and dance numbers, giggles galore and bags of audience participation.

A relaxed (SEN friendly) performance will run on Tuesday 17 December 2024 at 10:30am, and a captioned performance will take place on Sunday 29 December 2024 at 1pm.
