The annual Pantomime Carol Service is open to everyone who would like to attend and starts at 11am. The event is a traditional service with extra pantomime pizazz.  

All the stars will be there, including Beverley Callard, Joe Tracini, Richard Gauntlett, Millie O’Connell and Karl Queensborough. Joining them will be the full ensemble, as well as the children from the junior ensemble, who will delight the congregation with a festive song. 

The annual pantomime carol service allows the cast, crew, and theatre staff to take a break from their work on the pantomime and celebrate Christmas together and the community of Norwich. 

Stephen Crocker,Chief Executive & Creative Director at Norwich Theatre, said: “This is one of my favourite moments in the panto run, seeing everyone come together and celebrate Christmas with the local community.  

“For many, coming to the pantomime at Norwich Theatre is an essential part of their family’s Christmas traditions. For the Norwich Theatre family, it is the key part of our festive tradition and we hope to see lots of you there.” 

Speaking about the Pantomime Carol Service, the Vicar at St Peter Mancroft, Revd Canon Edward Carter, said:  

“I’m delighted we’ll be hosting this carol service again this year. It’s a wonderful part of our Christmas celebrations and reminds us all how lucky we are to have Norwich Theatre in our city. I’m looking forward to seeing members of the cast taking a turn at the front, and we have some lovely carols to sing together.”
