Adult Panto DICK! COMES AGAIN Returns to Leicester Square, Now thru Jan 19

The West End's No1 Adult Panto is back - and this Christmas season it is Dick! Comes Again: Bigger, Longer, Harder! Legendary international DJ and celebrated nightclub diva, Miss Dusty 'O', who made her West End stage debut in last year's acclaimed, sold out Dick!, is back as S'HoHo' sex club owner Miss Sofonda Cox.

Dick! Comes Again: Bigger, Longer, Harder! plays an eight-week season from today 27 November to Sunday 19 January.

Miss Dusty 'O' is accompanied by a highly talented gang of West End Wendys to take on another camp and quiet ridiculous, carnal romp through London Town, written and directed once again by Stuart Saint.

The infamous Queen Runt has risen from the deep, dark depths of showbiz hell, bringing 'Carry On'-style chaos to the festive season. Will familiar friends, Dick!, Alice, Fairy Bell-End and the infamous pussy, Dave The Cat, be able to save the day and restore order to London's favourite and number one panto? ... Probably not, but a scintillating, riotously rude and hilarious evening is in store for the filthiest Christmas and debauched New Year you'll ever enjoy!

STRICTLY ADULTS ONLY! Dick! Comes Again: Bigger, Longer, Harder! is not for the faint hearted, easily offended or shockable - However you should give it a try, you never know, after all, there's nothing wrong with a little bit of Dick!

After working for designer Zandra Rhodes, Miss Dusty 'O' turned to DJing - a career that has taken her to play in almost every European city, together with residencies at uber fashionable Bambina's at Venom in Leicester Square, Nancys at The End, the massive monthly club megalith Pushca, legendary club night Bang, seven years at The Limelight on Sunday night, Don't Call Me Babe at the now sadly missed Ghetto (nine years), G-A-Y at The Astoria, Camp Attack and Heaven on Saturday for two years and Popcorn at Heaven on Mondays for five years. Eight years ago, Dusty started the Trannyshack club night at what was then the Soho Revue Bar. This night is still going strong at Madame JoJo's and has developed a massive cult following. When not DJ'ing or hosting her own club nights, Dusty has recorded several singles and been featured on no fewer than five albums, most recently with the 2011 release of Wat 2 Do and a charity single in aid of an HIV charity together with a host of Soho faces and stars called Xmas In Soho.
