The Haslemere Thespians will be performing the traditional family pantomime Sleeping Beauty at Haslemere Hall between January 10 and 19.

A spokesperson said: “This is a fairytale story with a prince and princess, where good fights evil and prevails, spreading happiness over the land.

“All the glitz, glamour and spectacle which have come to be expected from one of the greatest pantomimes will be present, not forgetting fun, jokes and audience participation.”

There will be bursts of strobe lighting during the performance.

The show has been written by Alan P Frayn and by arrangement with Stage Right Creative.

There are performances on January 10 (7.30pm), January 11 (2.30pm, 6.30pm), January 12 (11am, 3pm), January 17 (7.30pm), January 18 (2.30pm, 6.30pm) and January 19 (2.30pm).

Since its formation in 1937, The Haslemere Thespians has presented more than 150 major plays, more than 50 pantomimes and around 60 one-act play evenings.

There is a regular programme of events including the highly popular and acclaimed pantomime in January, a full-length play in the spring, and a further full-length play or ‘supper evening’ of one-act plays in the autumn.
