And the panto for this month of December will only be a curtain raiser for a whole new season from the new year.

Dick Whittington will run from December 2-18 and herald a fresh start for members and audiences alike after being deprived of stage productions since February of last year.

Preparations and rehearsals are in full swing and the cast and crew say they can’t wait to bring this iconic theater back to life.

A full new season will begin in January 2022, with the kickoff of a favorite comedy, John Godber’s Teechers from January 26 to February 5, which was already launching before the lockdown.

Next up will be Agatha Christie’s Towards Zero from March 9-19 and hearing notices for this can be found at wiganlittletheatre.co.uk.

The AWLT spokesperson said, “We look forward to seeing our loyal following and welcoming new ones.

“We are happy to say that ticket prices remain the same and that we have many more ways to book.”
