Rojales Patnomime Group: Rojales Pantomime Group: Panto week was exhausting, exhilarating and exciting, extraordinary and amazing - all rolled up into one. The Group performed Dick Whittington to three well attended performances. The audience and, especially the children, were swept along with the story and cheered the heroes, Dick and Alice, booed King Rat and his Ratpack, laughed uproariously at the Dame and Idle Jack’s and the others' antics. Puss was a firm favourite with everyone! After a year of hard work, dedication and commitment the feedback from our audiences has been heartwarming - “The best panto I’ve seen in years.” “ A really enjoyable experience with some outstanding performances for amateur dramatists. Well done!” “It was an amazing panto, loved every minute of it. You all gave a fabulous performance.” The Director, Alison Clough, is absolutely thrilled with Team Dick Whittington for a job excellently executed and with loads of fun along the way! Without our excellent supporting crews - backstage, technical, prompt, wardrobe and front of house, it would not have been possible. The Rojales Panto Group would also like to thank all those who supported us, and for their generosity for our chosen charities.
