Event Description:

A wonderfully wicked panto comes to Aylesbury Waterside Theatre for Christmas 2026!

The spellbinding Sleeping Beauty promises a laugh-a-minute extravaganza, bursting with dazzling sets, top musical hits, stunning costumes and spectacular special effects to keep audiences of all ages entertained!

Call The Midwife’s Laura Main will be delivering panto magic alongside family favourite and local legend Andy Collins who returns as Lester the Jester and larger-than-life dame, Leon Craig returning for a third year - complete with show-stopping costumes. With Channel 5 Milkshake’s David Ribi bringing the adventure as Prince Vincent and Jordan Lee Davies (Les Miserables and Chicago) bringing powerhouse vocals as the most evil of baddies, Carabosse – audiences are in for a real festive treat!
