Showstoppers’ panto will be spellbinding

The panto tells the story of the beautiful Princess Aurora who pricks her finger and falls asleep for a hundred years, before a true love kiss awakens her, and the whole of the Kingdom of Elsinore which has fallen under the same spell.

This classic fairy story is packed with comic calamities, slapstick humour and a host of characters to entertain the whole family.

Alongside the Young Showstoppers – based at the Stuart Stage School in Heckmondwike – with their high energy song and dance routines, is King Woppa searching for an everlasting burger, and his handyman Muddles bringing madness and mayhem to the production.

Sleeping Beauty runs from December 13-23. Ticket prices are £9 for adults and £7 for concessions.

They are available from the town hall in Cleckheaton, the Kirkwood Hospice Shop in Cleckheaton or by calling 01924 412224.
