Stoke-born Jonathan Wilkes will star in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs at the city’s Regent Theatre this Christmas.
He will be joined by fellow Stoke panto favourite Christian Patterson who last year played one of the ugly sisters in Cinderella.
Jonathan Wilkes said, “There’s no place I would rather be at Christmas than on the stage of the Regent Theatre in Stoke.
“And there’s nobody I would rather be sharing it with than Christian Patterson. I’m not quite sure who has a better time – us on stage or the audience watching us.”
The full cast will be announced soon.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is at the Regent from Tuesday 3 December until Sunday 8 December and Tuesday 17 December until Sunday 5 January.
