Wilkes Marks 10th Anniversary In Regent Theatre's Panto PETER PAN

The Regent Theatre is happy to announce that Stoke-on-Trent's favourite pantomime duo Jonathan Wilkes and Christian Patterson will return in Peter Pan for another season of festive fun. The 2015 panto will mark Jonny's tenth year starring in an FFE Panto and at The Regent Theatre.

The Regent Theatre panto has become the must-see Christmas tradition with all your favourite panto ingredients, songs, dancing, comedy and plenty of audience participation.

Jonny and Christian delighted audiences last year in Dick Whittington, and in this year's story, audiences will see Jonny playing Smee and Christian will play Captain Hook.

Jonny said: "I cannot wait to come back to The Regent Theatre for the 2015 panto, Peter Pan! We haven't appeared in Peter Pan before so it's going to be a brand new show with lots of surprises for everyone. I love coming home to Stoke-on-Trent during Christmas, not only are the audiences amazing, and the theatre is like my second home but to be able to work with my mate Christian again is great because we have as much fun in the panto as the audience do watching it. And this year is extra special as it's my tenth panto at The Regent, so it's going to be an even bigger and better than before."

Peter Pan will be produced by First Family Entertainment, who has produced past Panto favourites including Aladdin, Cinderella, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Dick Whittington.

Regent Theatre General Manager, Andrew Nicklin, said: "It is fantastic to welcome Jonny and Christian back to The Regent Theatre for this year's Panto.

"Peter Pan is going to be a spectacular production, one you will not want to miss, so bring the whole family along to see it and enjoy a brilliant panto.

"It will be great to celebrate Jonny's tenth year at The Regent!"

The full cast for Peter Pan will be announced later this year.

Peter Pan is at The Regent Theatre from Friday 4 December 2015 to Sunday 3 January 2016.
