The Olympics may have left Hackney but fear not because Susie McKenna and her critically acclaimed pantomime team are back with yet another glittering, festive and down-right dazzling Hackney Empire pantomime. This time we are bringing it home - it is set in London Town!

A show for all the family, Dick Whittington tells the rags-to-riches tale of a young man and his loyal cat, on their exciting quest to find fame and fortune. Featuring all the traditional pantomime ingredients; thrilling adventure, show-stopping songs, dazzling dance routines, knockabout comedy and bags of audience participation, this is guaranteed to be another Hackney hit and the perfect Christmas treat.
