'Where did all the happy endings go? Where can all the good times be?' When West End stalwart Dianne Pilkington enchanted the audience yesterday evening at the press night of Bedknobs and Broomsticks with The Sherman Brothers' 'The Age of Not Believing', perhaps the 1971 Disney film's most iconic number, I couldn't help but think about we have all endured over the past year and a half.

The UK tour of Bedknobs and Broomsticks began performances at Newcastle Theatre Royal on Saturday 14 August 2021!  The UK Tour is now extended through to March 2022. The tour includes a 5-week Christmas season at Leeds Grand Theatre.
