Panto: your last chance. (Oh no it isn’t…)
Pantomime is a Christmas thing, surely. But you have one last chance to see a panto – Brick Lane Music Hall, out in North Woolwich, is running Dick Whittington till the first of March.
Sorry – that should be “Big Dick Whittington.” And if you thought panto was kid’s stuff, this one is billed as “suitable for adults of all ages”.
Brick Lane Music Hall retains its name from its original location in the Old Truman Brewery in Brick Lane – but rising rents forced it out. Now, it’s housed in a Victorian church – not necessarily the most appropriate home for some of its risque moments, but that just adds to the fun.
The panto isn’t a cheap night out – tickets are £35 – but that includes your dinner and a dance, as well as the show.
Brick Lane Music Hall is at 443 North Woolwich Road, E 16 – get there on the Docklands Light Railway (Pontoon Dock station).
