🌑🌱 FEE-FI-FO-FUM… WHO’S BLOCKED OUT THE SUN?! 🌱🌑

Apparently there’s a solar eclipse today…

At least, that’s what the scientists are saying. 🔭

We’ve got another theory. 👀

It looks suspiciously like our GIANT has wandered a little too close to Wimborne and got in the way of the sun… ☀️

Don’t worry, we’ll try and get him back above the clouds before Jack and the Beanstalk opens at the Tivoli Theatre this Christmas.

Although if you hear a distant “FEE-FI-FO-FUM” while you’re watching the eclipse…

RUN. 🏃‍♂️🫘

🌱 JACK AND THE BEANSTALK
Coming to the Tivoli Theatre, Wimborne this Christmas!

⚠️ And unlike Jack, please don’t stare directly at the sun. Eclipse glasses at the ready! 😎

✨🌱 THE MAGIC BEGINS... 🌱✨

We're absolutely delighted to announce that Vicki Michelle will be joining the cast of Jack and the Beanstalk this Christmas as the enchanting Fairy French Bean! 💚

A true television icon and one of Britain's most recognisable actresses, Vicki has enjoyed an incredible career in showbiz!

She is, of course, best known around the world as the unforgettable Yvette Carte-Blanche in the classic BBC sitcom 'Allo 'Allo!, while soap fans will also know her from Emmerdale and her memorable appearance in EastEnders as Jo Cotton.

As if that wasn't enough, Vicki famously headed into the Australian jungle in I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, proving she's more than a match for creepy crawlies, and has become a firm favourite with audiences through countless television appearances and an outstanding career in theatre.

No stranger to pantomime, Vicki is a genuine panto legend, bringing warmth, wit and sparkle to audiences across the UK for many years.

Now, she's bringing that magic to the Tivoli Theatre for what promises to be a truly GIANT adventure!

Please join us in giving Vicki the warmest possible Wimborne welcome! 🎭✨

👠✨ He's back... and we wouldn't have it any other way! ✨👠

We're absolutely delighted to announce that Courtney Jackson will return to the Tivoli Theatre this Christmas as the one and only Dame Trott in Jack and the Beanstalk! 🌱

This year's pantomime marks an incredible milestone as Courtney celebrates his 8th consecutive year as the Tivoli's fabulous Dame. In that time, he's become a true Wimborne favourite, delighting audiences with unforgettable costumes, outrageous comedy and more than a little audience participation!

Last Christmas, Courtney celebrated his 100th pantomime performance on the Tivoli stage, and we're thrilled to welcome him back to continue the tradition.

Away from Wimborne, Courtney has also appeared on Britain's Got Talent as part of the sensational Dame Nation, showcasing the very best of British pantomime to millions of viewers across the country.

Now it's time to pull on the frock once again as Dame Trott prepares to lead another giant adventure!

Please join us in giving Courtney the warmest of welcomes back to the Tivoli! 💚🎭

What a fantastic evening we had last weekend, celebrating with colleagues and friends across the industry at The Pantomime Awards, hosted by the UK Pantomime Association.

We were over the moon to be announced as the winners of the award for 'Best Ensemble' - huge congratulations go to Lianha, Gemma, Chloe, Olly, Thomas, Richard, Erin & Fin who made up our incredible ensemble of dancers for Goldilocks and the Three Bears!

Judges visited over 230 pantomimes up and down the country so it is a huge honour to find ourselves 'Award Winning' - especially when nominated in a category alongside 4 other productions, including one of the biggest pantomimes in the country.

So, your Tivoli Theatre pantomime is now officially AWARD-WINNING! We can't wait to create more magic and laughter this coming Christmas with Jack and the Beanstalk!
