This year’s family pantomime at the Hawth, Crawley, stars EastEnders’ Emma Barton as Tinkerbell and Shaun Williamson (EastEnders, Extras) will be shedding his loveable image to become the menacing Captain Hook.

Cook and Line, the pirate duo from CBeebies Swashbuckle will be onboard ship, plus Crawley favourite Hilary O’Neil (who was Carabosse in Sleeping Beauty) will be playing Mrs Darling and Big Chief Sitting Cow, while by huge popular demand, Michael J Batchelor, panto dame extraordinaire is back as Mrs Smee.

Once again, the show will be written by Paul Hendy, and brought to you by Evolution Productions, the same creative team behind last year’s record-breaking smash hit, Jack and the Beanstalk.
