An expected 10,000 people will come through the doors this Christmas to see the seventh professional pantomime, which is produced by Katherine Hickmottt and Daniel Bell who also write, direct and choreograph the production.

Daniel Bell said: "I believe we have created our most hilarious, energetic and visually stunning pantomime to date. Every year, the pressure is on to create the pantomime that our city deserves.'

Heading up the cast is Ely's favourite pantomime comedian Terry Gauci as 'Dame Sarah Sweet Tooth' alongside a professional cast of musical theatre and pantomime professionals.
