Jones will play the role of Pc Pong in nine performances of Aladdin, from December 26–30.
A spokesman for Anton Benson Productions, which is presenting the pantomime, said: “We are looking forward to bringing the Christmas spirit to the Soham community this year and promise music, dancing and more laughs than you can shake a holly branch at.”
Join Aladdin and a whole host of panto favourites including the wondrous Widow Twankey, the pompous Pc Pong, evil Abanazar and his silly sidekick Suzy the Slave of the Ring in a frolicking laugh-a-minute, all-singing, all-dancing magic carpet ride through panto land.
The cast is completed by professional actors Colin McGowan (Aladdin), Edward D’arcy Hatton (Widow Twankey), Howard Scott Walker (Abanazar), Amy-Jane Ollies (Princess Jasmyn) and Holly Robson (Suzy the Slave of the Ring).
