Dick Whittington And His Cat
THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 5TH JANUARY 2020

Last staged here at Hackney in 2012, this new adaptation of Dick Whittington and His Cat sets the classic rags-to-riches tale in Jamaica where young 'Dickens' Whittington is boarding the Empire Windrush. Dreaming of a new life and seeking to make his fortune in the gold-paved streets of glorious London, our hero - played by Tarinn Callender, who made his West End debut with the original London cast of Hamilton playing Hercules Mulligan and James Madison - embarks on the adventure of a lifetime: reuniting with his Mum, fighting rodent royalty, meeting an eccentric fairy and winning the heart of his true love, all with his trusted feline friend at his side. Annette McLaughlin as Queen Rat, Christina Tedders as Alice Fitzwarren and Sue Kelvin as Fairy Bowbells star alongside Hackney stalwarts Clive Rowe, this year starring as Sarah the Cook, Kat B as Vincent the Cat and Tony Whittle as Alderman Fitzwarren. This Christmas offering from the acclaimed Hackney Empire panto team will be an all-singing, all-dancing adventure with topical gags, boo-able baddies and festive cheer.
About Hackney Empire
Renowned East London entertainment venue designed by celebrated architect Frank Matcham. Stan Laurel and Charlie Chaplin both trod the boards here in the Hackney Empire's music hall heyday but the unique domed building was reduced to being used as a bingo hall for much of the 60s and 70s.
