MIRROR, MIRROR, ON THE WALL, DON’T MISS THE FAIREST PANTOMIME OF THEM ALL!

Further casting announced as dame extraordinaire David Robbins and West End star Jamal Crawford join the line-up for Nottingham’s biggest pantomime starring Joe Pasquale and Faye Tozer

Theatre Royal Nottingham

3 December 2022 – 8 January 2023

The Theatre Royal Nottingham have announced further casting for this year’s magical family pantomime, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Previously announced panto favourites Joe Pasqualeand Faye Tozer will be joined by dame extraordinaire and East Midlands local David Robbins, and West End performer Jamal Crawford.

David Robbins is no stranger to playing dame and has appeared as Sarah the Cook in Dick Whittington, Dotty Doolittle in Beauty and the Beast, Mrs Crusoe in Robinson Crusoe and the Caribbean Pirates and Widow Twankey in Aladdin. He has also performed in several panto seasons as an Ugly Sister in Cinderella. David originally trained as a stage manager, specialising in wardrobe and prop making, and has also trained in puppetry and toured the UK as a puppeteer. David returns to star alongside Joe Pasquale following recently Christmases spent together in panto in Plymouth and Milton Keynes.

Jamal Crawford joins the cast of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as The Prince. He trained at Masters Performing Arts College and his theatre credits include Ensemble in Back to the Future (Adelphi Theatre, London), Tyrone Jackson in Fame (2019 UK Tour, West End and Troubadour Theatre), The Bodyguard (UK Tour), Guys And Dolls (UK Tour), Thriller Live (West End), Dick Whittington (His Majesty’s Theatre, Aberdeen) and the world premiere of Back to the Future at the Opera House, Manchester in March 2020. Jamal has also performed at the National Television Awards and in music videos for Alexandra Burke.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is staged by Crossroads Pantomimes, the world’s biggest pantomime producer, led by Michael Harrison and the creative team behind recent Theatre Royal successes including last year’s production of Robin Hood.

The Theatre Royal Nottingham’s Venue Director, Peter Ireson, is delighted with the ever-increasing line-up of talent confirmed to appear in this year’s family-friendly production: “We are thrilled to add two more very exciting names to our pantomime cast line-up today.  Alongside pantomime legend Joe Pasquale and singing and dancing sensation Faye Tozer, David and Jamal will add a wealth of experience and tremendous talent to this year’s Theatre Royal pantomime.” 

The pantomime will be spectacularly brought to life with an abundance of comedy, sensational song and dance numbers, fabulous costumes, and stunning scenery. Throw in a magical mirror, seven friendly dwarfs, a beautiful princess, a handsome prince and plenty of audience participation and you have the perfect recipe to outwit the Wicked Queen and let love prevail in this glittering festive treat for all ages. 

Book your tickets soon, or you won’t be able to look yourself in the mirror!
