Panto season is underway at the Trinity Arts Centre in Gainsborough
Panto season has got off to a sparking start at the Trinity Arts Centre in Gainsborough.
Cinderella was joined by her ugly sisters and some other special guests as the curtain rose on our premier performance of Cinderella.
Chairman of West Lindsey District Council, Coun Matt Boles and vice chairman, Coun John Barrett added an extra touch of glamour to the opening celebration.
Coun Boles donned his civic chain as he headed off to this year’s ball with his daughter Darcie.
Coun Boles has even more cause to celebrate, as his daughter will take to the stage as part of the talented cast.
He said: “I’m incredibly proud to see Darcie performing in this year’s pantomime.
“The Trinity Arts Centre team always put on a wonderful show, and it’s brilliant to see so many local young people involved. I was delighted to be invited to join audiences in supporting this magical production and kicking off the festive season in style.”
This year’s pantomime promises laughter, music, and plenty of festive cheer and the production offers a fantastic opportunity to showcase the incredible local talent that makes Gainsborough’s pantomime tradition so special.
Coun Barrett added: “The annual panto is a real highlight for our community. It brings families together, celebrates creativity, and spreads a huge amount of joy.
“I was very much looking forward to experiencing the excitement of opening night and seeing Gainsborough come alive with festive spirit.”
Chief Executive of West Lindsey District Council, Paul Burkinshaw and Director of Planning, Regeneration and Communities, Sally Grindrod-Smith also attended the opening performance.
Audiences can expect dazzling costumes, hilarious antics, and all the traditional panto fun.
Produced by the same team that wowed audiences with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in 2024, this year’s show is set to whisk Gainsborough away to the ultimate festive ball.
Premium performances will take place on December 21, 23, 24th and 31st December, and school performances are scheduled throughout mid-December.
