Robin Hood in the City: Ely’s Spellbinding Christmas Pantomime Makes for the Perfect Gift this Christmas

Poets House in Ely saw a spectacular promotion of the highly awaited pantomime, Robin Hood.

Local organisations such as press houses, the media and local business gathered in droves in the heart of Ely to watch the engaging presentation.

The Christmas Pantomime which will see the cast Paul Cassaro (Robin Hood), Elisha Hancock (Little Joan), Maid Marion (Nancy Doubledee), Tommy Carmichael (Silly Willy Scarlett), Rob Stevens (Auntie Dolly), James Sterling (Sheriff of Nottingham) is one not to be missed this Christmas. 

The Mesmerising show, which will run from December 8th to January 3rd, has already made circles in Ely where an impressive 50% of tickets have already been sold. It is estimated that over 10,500 people are expected to take their seats to watch the fabulous cast; making 2023 a Christmas to remember.

Ely’s greatest Pantomime adventure presentation saw KD Theatre owners Daniel Bell and Katherine Hickmott alongside the full cast. When asked what Robin Hood has to offer from other Pantomimes, Daniel said: “It’s brand new and written for Ely audiences. We’re celebrating local.” Daniel added, “I’m most looking forward to the public seeing the set and costumes. They are visually stunning. We’re also welcoming new cast members to this theatre production.”

Austen Dack, PR and Marketing representative for KD Theatre Productions, who led the presentation  and has seen KD Theatre deliver six pantomimes, said: “This year at KD Theatre we’re seeing family dynamics changing every year. The population of Ely has increased, and we’re promoting at Ben’s Yard, and we’ve been doing a leaflet drop.”

With its loyal local sponsors such as the Prince Albert, Apex Coffee House, The Maltings and Poets House among others, and its 80,000 strong social media reach last year alone; Robin Hood has local support for its magnificent local production.
