Our Christmas Star competition may be closed, but the festive magic continues!
Join us at our NEW Santa panto and see if you can spot our Christmas star!
Does your little one have what it takes to entertain an audience of hundreds? Do they love to sing and dance? Are they one of the most festive people on the planet? And are they aged between 8 - 10 years old and live in the North West of England?
If so, then your child could be the star we’re looking for! They could be performing, alongside professional actors, in our Santa Panto on the opening night of Enchanted on Saturday 30th November 2024.
To apply, please complete the form below by Monday 30th September and we’ll let you know by Friday 18th October whether you’re one of the 20 lucky children invited to an exciting audition session on Monday 28th October. Please ask an adult to check the terms and conditions below and good luck!*
