Charities invited to see The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan

The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan is set to fill His Majesty’s Theatre with swashbuckling festive cheer this Christmas, and in the spirit of the season, 300 tickets are being given away to local charities.

Aberdeen Performing Arts and the show’s producers, Crossroads Pantomimes, are inviting groups to apply for free tickets to the Christmas pantomime, which runs at His Majesty’s from Saturday, 3 December to Sunday, January 8.

Charities can apply using the application form on the Aberdeen Performing Arts website for tickets to the 7pm performance on Tuesday, 6 December. The deadline for applications is Friday, 11 November.

Those who are successful are promised a high-flying adventure as the Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan sails in to His Majesty’s Theatre this festive season.

Former Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer and Dancing on Ice finalist Brendan Cole will star as Captain Hook in the spectacular production, alongside panto dame extraordinaire Alan McHugh as ship’s cook Maggie Celeste, comic actor and River City star Paul J Corrigan as Smee and Aberdonian performer Danielle Jam as Tinkerbell.

The show is being staged by the same team that has produced the His Majesty’s Theatre panto for the last 18 years, with the usual abundance of comedy, lavish sets, fabulous costumes, and of course a few surprises in store.

Entires can be made by using the form below or by sending a completed form to hello@aberdeenperformingarts.com

Successful groups will be told by 7pm on Friday 18 November.

Tickets for The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan are available online, phone 01224 641122 or visit Aberdeen Box Office at the Music Hall, Lemon Tree or His Majesty’s Theatre.

Criteria for judging 

This application is open to any group, school, registered charity or organisation based in the Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire areas.  Tickets will be awarded to as wide a variety of applicants as possible, however we receive several hundred applications each year and unfortunately it is not possible to fulfil all requests. The awards will be based on the supporting information provided in the application.

It is unlikely that multiple entries from different divisions of the same organisation will all be successful. Organisations should consider making one application and, if successful, divide the tickets between the different branches or divisions. The decisions will be final and no correspondence will be entered into. Only successful applicants will be contacted.  If you have not been contacted by Aberdeen Performing Arts by 18 November then unfortunately your application has been unsuccessful on this occasion.

If you would prefer to send an application form to us directly, please download and complete the application form. Completed forms can be emailed to hello@aberdeenperformingarts.com, posted to Music Hall, Union Street, AB10 1QS, or dropped off at the Music Hall Box Office. 

We will also have application forms available for you to complete in person at the Music Hall Box Office.

The deadline for receipt of applications is Friday 11 November.
