Panto fever grips the Waterfront as Sleeping Beauty opens!

Sleeping Beauty - the Christmas pantomime – has opened at Belfast Waterfront with families making a beeline for the best value panto in town!

Presented by LANA Productions and Belfast Waterfront, directed by Lisa May and produced by Martin Lynch, Sleeping Beauty is the best loved fairy tale of them all… magically brought to life on the pantomime stage!

You can’t beat a Waterfront panto for excitement, fun and laughter. And judging by the fever pitch excitement generated by the first audiences through the doors, Sleeping Beauty is proving a huge hit with children and families as they get up close to all the action and literally become part of the adventure!

An all-action cast of larger than life characters ensures there’s hardly a moment to pause for breath during this non-stop thrill-a-minute pantomime rollercoaster ride. Trudy Scrumptious aka Gordon Crawford is Nanny Magee, everyone’s favourite panto dame, as she and Prince Harry Smiles (Gavin Peden) must protect Sleeping Beauty (Jolene O’Hara) from the evil clutches of Maleficent (Gary Crossan) with the help of Fairy Stardust (Emer McDaid) and Muddles (Nuala Davies).

Presented in association with U105, Sleeping Beauty is on now at Belfast Waterfront and runs to 7 January. Tickets are available by calling 028 9033 4455, online at www.waterfront.co.uk and at our main Box Office at the Ulster Hall.
