Pantomime in Scunthorpe is set to be given a brand new home due to ‘extraordinary demand’ for tickets.

Due to record-breaking sales, Annie Fanny and the stars of the town’s panto will move from their current home of The Plowright Theatre to The Baths Hall in December 2017.

A brand new panto – Robin Hood and the Babes in the Wood – will run at The Baths Hall and will again be produced by Tony Peers Productions and star Annie Fanny. Shows will start on Wednesday, 13 December 2017 and run through until New Year’s Eve with 35 performances in total.

Darren Johnson who writes and directs the pantomime as well as stars as Annie Fanny, said: “The Plowright has been my home every Christmas for the past 11 years and I shall miss it dearly. But the figures speak for themselves. 96 per cent capacity is a truly remarkable achievement so it seems the obvious choice to move up the road to The Baths Hall. Simply put, it means we can invite more guests to the party!

“A new venue calls for a new title and I'm delighted to be in the process of writing a brand new pantomime for 2017 - Robin Hood & The Babes in The Wood. This swashbuckling tale of derring-do and merry men, who rob the rich to feed the poor, is sure to delight young and old alike. Especially if the babes in the wood's Nanny Annie Fanny has anything to do with it!
“For such a short trip up the road it's a big step, but I have every confidence that the theatre staff along with our producer Tony Peers will pull out all the stops to make this a spectacular production befitting its new home. "
