FEE-FI-FO-FUM, GET READY FOR SOME FESTIVE FUN!


Best known for presenting Milkshake! on Channel 5, panto favourite, David Ribi, bounds back to the Bournemouth Pavilion this festive season to take on the role of Jack in Jack & the Beanstalk.

Presenter and musical theatre star, David, will be bringing more festive fun to this year’s spectacular Bournemouth Pavilion pantomime Jack & the Beanstalk as he joins recently announced Corrie bad boy Calum Lill, playing the evil Fleshcreep.

David has also toured with Hairspray, Dreamboats and Petticoats and internationally as Niall Horan in the Only One Direction tribute act.
Anyone wanting to climb the beanstalk to pantoland this season but is worried the experience may be too overwhelming, a relaxed performance Tuesday 17 December 2024 at 10.30am, is a perfect alternative. Packed with just as much panto pazazz and stress-free sparkle, it’s a calmer environment with house lights up, no loud bangs, noises or flashing lights.
Furthermore, there is a captioned performance on Sunday 29 December 2024 at 1pm, where dialogue is displayed on a screen throughout. This performance may benefit, those who are, for example, deaf, hard of hearing, neurodivergent or if their first language is not English.So, this festive season, expect a wholesome hero, a punch-packing princess, a feisty fairy, a simple sibling, a witty widow, a slippery servant, a kind-hearted king... and a cow with some beef. Oh... and a very large magical beanstalk, of course!

For a fee-fi-fo-fabulous, reimagined romp through a classic tale you thought you knew…with amazing 3D effects - book your tickets now!
