Naima Clarvis, Toria White and Jude Crawley
Follow Dick Whittington, an aspirational young man, as he journeys to London to find success where the streets are allegedly paved with gold!
Upon arrival, Dick discovers that London is a drab and dreary place, but this does not dull his spirit! With help from his friend Cat, Dick deals with whatever life throws at him. From his stressed out employer Julie Fitzwarren, to his villainous boss, Nigel Oliver, the chef who has made it his mission to make Dick's life a misery. Who knows, maybe he'll even find love along the way? Or perhaps an important political job?
Don't miss out on this year's annual pantomime presented by the Cambridge University Amateur Dramatic Club and the Cambridge Footlights.
This production is recommended for people of all ages.
The ADC Theatre is Britain's oldest University playhouse, today administered and maintained by the University of Cambridge. Plays have been presented on the site since 1855, when the Cambridge University Amateur Dramatic Club (CUADC) was founded, and the society met and performed in the back room of the Hoop Inn, which stood almost exactly where the ADC Theatre stands today. Today, the ADC Theatre is the centre of University drama in Cambridge, run almost entirely by students with no Faculty involvement.
