Dick Whittington: A New Dick in Town @ Above The Stag (until 16 Jan 2022)

After years of sell-out smashes our acclaimed pantomime team are back with their rude, riotous and unashamedly romantic take on the ultimate London legend! Like many a gay country lad, Dick comes to the big city in search of men and money. But just as Londoners are getting back on their feet, dastardly mayoral candidate Queen Rat and her minions rise up to bite them in the ankles! When she frames Dick for a terrible crime, Dick stiffens himself for a great adventure. Can he clear his name, win back his boy and defeat Queen Rat before she brings London to its knees - and not in a good way? Packed with all the popular panto traditions, original songs and a cornucopia of dick jokes. Dick Whittington: A New Dick In Town is a fabulously filthy and hilariously happy winter treat. Praise for Above The Stags pantomimes Blissfully irreverent quite possibly the best adult panto youll see this year. The Stage Laughs-a-plenty. Book a ticket. Now. UKTW Their annual adult pantomimeshave become the stuff of legend. Huffpost The best panto in London adult or otherwise Attitude Spectacularly funny As camp as Christmas and brilliantly boisterous not to be missed Time Out The writing sings, the gags land, the songs are sublime Gay Times
