This is the story of Sinbad- Ellie Ball who has big dreams of going to sea an exploring the world, but as luck would have it or script writers pen he has to help out in his sisters Beyonce’s bakery played superbly by Alex Howell with all you would expect from a pantomime dame
Sinbads dream comes true when he is press ganged by the evil Blackbeard’s David Daly- scurvy crew – Charlotte Ball and Dave Stonehouse and Blackbeards ruthless daughter Polly – Julie Guiver Wells.
After much fun and frolics, searing for treasure and falling in love the story ends with happiness abounding.
This is a terrace pantomime penned by Liz Daley who also plays a “Prawn” in the show, it captures all that should be included in a traditional family friendly pantomime which I promise you will beat those post Christmas blues.
