In the Brick Lane Music Hall annual pantomime, Big Dick Whittington, Andrew Robley takes on the role of Tommy the Cat.

Pictured above, left to right, Andrew with Anna Campkin who plays Alice Fitzwarren, Stephanie Senn and Bethany Walsh. With Paul James who plays Captain Norfolk. And with Saskia Brynne who plays the title role of Dick Whittington. Costumes were designed and made by Frank Kershaw, with overall production design by Zara Kattan.

The story of Dick Whittington is based on a real person, and there are different theories about whether or not he owned a cat. You can read more in our panto’ programme – available at the show – with more information about the artists and their stories and the story of Dick Whittington – and his cat!

Big Dick Whittington runs until March 8th.
