The Fairytale Revolution:
Wendy’s Awfully Big Adventure
By Anna Spearpoint and Louise Beresford, Directed by Carla Kingham
From 4 – 31 December 2019
Back by popular demand, writers and performers Anna Spearpoint and Louise Beresford take to the stage in Theatre503’s The Fairytale Revolution: Wendy’s Awfully Big Adventure. They met performing in last year’s panto, Cinderella and the Beanstalk, and after months gazing lovingly into each other’s funny bones, they return to our new writing venue with a brilliant brand-new hilarious family friendly.
We all know how a panto is meant to go (oh no we don’t): the hero wins, the villain loses, someone gets married and they all live happily ever after… until now! Get ready for Wendy wanting to be a pirate and Captain Hook yearning to be a poet. Together with The Baker Swife they embark on a thrilling journey to Enchantia in search of a brand-new story.
We also believe (oh yes we do) that we’re the only all-female panto in the entire world (all challenges accepted). Plus, we’re proudly flying the local flag high once more, with Anna Spearpoint from just around the corner in Battersea.
BREAKING NEWS: Contrary to recent coverage by the Sun and the Daily Star, it is in fact the case that our Wendy just really wanted a new adventure all on her own (and there is at the very least one “bawdy joke” about Aladdin’s lamp). Our panto is a celebration of superb storytelling and a magical, glorious Christmas show for families. Why not come along and let our new story speak for itself?
