Katharine Mead (Prince Richard)

Katharine is swapping her Polka-Dot dress for a pair of boots and fishnet tights this year! This is Katharine’s eleventh Panto and she hopes that you enjoy the show. She continues to pursue a career in clinical psychology and is currently researching bipolar disorder (manic depression) at the Institute of Psychiatry.

Catherine Osbourne (Princess Beauty)

Although Catherine really enjoyed choreographing last year’s production of Beauty and the Beast, playing the Fairy last year worked its Pantomime Magic on her, transporting her on stage and transforming her into this year’s Princess Beauty. This will be Catherine’s sixth appearance in Woldingham and she really hopes that you enjoy the show.

Deborah Larner (Queen of the Fairies)

This is Deborah’s debut in the world of pantomime. While attending stage school as a child, she represented her school at local drama festivals and has appeared in many ‘Gang Show’ productions. She moved into choral singing becoming the lead soprano, performing solos in Vivaldi’s Gloria, and Handel’s Messiah. Deborah is thrilled to be given this exciting role… and hopes “all will be well”.

Thommos Jones (King Fred)

This is Thom’s first return to the stage since his teenage years when he starred in various productions from Worzell Gummidge to Oliver. He is currently studying to be a pharmacy dispenser for Boot’s Chemist and hopes that he can show his witty, funny personality that keeps all his work colleagues amused all day while working in a serious environment.
