Address: SR1 3EX
Venue: Sunderland Empire

From the Yorkshire Dales to the city of Sunderland, ITV Emmerdale's Matthew Wolfenden is set to bring his boyish charm to this year’s pantomime spectacular, Jack and the Beanstalk, as loveable hero Jack along with Wearside panto favourites, North East Queen of Comedy, the fabulous Miss Rory (Boulevard) as Dame Rorina Trott & the hilarious Tom Whalley as Silly Simon. When a heinous henchman kidnaps a cow & a princess from the downtrodden town of Boggy Bottom, young Jack finds himself on an adventure that he thought only existed in story books! Expect a wholesome hero, a punch-packing princess, a feisty fairy, a silly sibling, a witty widow, a slippery servant, a kind-hearted king... and a cow with some beef. Oh... and a very large magical plant, of course! Tickets from £13.00
