Mia Overfield, most recently seen on stage as Rosa in Cable Street at Southwark Playhouse, will play Snow White in this year’s Croydon panto in the Ashcroft Theatre at the Fairfield Halls from December 13 to January 5.
With a beautiful princess, a jealous Wicked Queen, seven bumbling dwarfs, a naughty nurse, a hilarious jester and not forgetting a poisoned apple and a magic mirror, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is not to be missed! “Bursting with great songs, stunning dance routines and plenty of laughter, this is a truly magical treat for all the family,” say the producers.
Tickets are on sale now for this festive extravaganza.
Overfield said, “I am so excited to appear as Snow White this Christmas I cannot wait to spend the festive season with everyone in Croydon!”
Overfield’s other stage credits include Ms Prig in the UK tour of David Walliams’ Demon Dentist, and Jack in Jack and the Beanstalk for at the Theatre Royal, York, in 2023.
EastEnders, Biff and Chip and Casualty star Kellie Shirley will play the Wicked Queen, while panto stalwart Jamie Steen is Dame Dilly Donut.
“We’re thrilled to add Mia Overfield to the mix – a true up-and-coming star and an inspirational role model for young people,” said producer Martin Dodd. “We can guarantee audiences the most wicked of pantomimes. But watch out for those apples!”
Tickets and group bookings are available from fairfield.co.uk, with special early bird rates and schools offers also available.
Promoting accessibility and enabling more people to enjoy the magic of pantomime, there are also captioned (December 27) and relaxed (January 3) performances.
