A brief plot summary
Dick Whittington is a dreamer and has his sights set on Castle Cary; the town paved with gold. With his trusty pussy cat by his side, he makes his way to Somerset and gets himself a job at Alderman Fitzwarren's Store however the great town is infested and under attack from the most villainous vermin of them all; King Rat! With the help of his new love Alice Fitzwarren, Fairy Bow Bells, the outrageous Fanny the Cook and her silly son Idle Jack, will Dick be able to vanquish the vermin and save the town from the plague of rodents? Will they safely set sail for shores far away or will King Rat give them all that sinking feeling? And most importantly will Fanny the cook every find a man of her own?

Drawing a Winner

Prize

To claim their two free tickets, the winning party must contact Robin via the booking phone number to arrange their preferred performance date and confirm how many will be in attendance.
