Casting announced for PANTOLAND AT THE PALLADIUM this Christmas

Pantoland at the Palladium

Casting has been announced for Pantoland at the Palladium this year, running from 4 December 2021 – 9 January 2022.

As reported by Baz Bamigboye of the Daily Mail last night, Donny Osmond has been confirmed to play the Wizard of Pantomime, alongside Julian Clary, Sophie Isaacs, Nigel Havers, Gary Wilmot, Jac Yarrow and Paul Zerdin; most of whom are returning to the Palladium for another Christmas season.

Australian speciality act Flame Oz will also add a new dimension to the pantomime, along with the return of spectacular special effects from the Twins FX.

An essential part of Christmas in the West End, Pantoland at The Palladium is created by Michael Harrison and promises to be a treasure trove of The London Palladium’s panto past and exciting new surprises written especially for the show, guaranteeing an unmissable treat for panto and musical theatre fans alike. 

Also making up the award-winning creative team are choreographer Karen Bruce, set designer Ian Westbrook, costume designer Hugh Durrant, lighting designer Ben Cracknell, sound designer Gareth Owen and composer and orchestrator Gary Hind.

Director and Producer Michael Harrison said: “Pantoland at The Palladium was originally created for the 2020 season and was sadly cut short due to the tiering system which meant we only played 6 performances to a reduced capacity of just 1000 people per performance.  However, the reaction to the show was unlike anything any of us had seen before so the thought of bringing it back as an even bigger and better Christmas extravaganza was too good an idea to resist.  Imagine my excitement when Donny Osmond, one of the greatest entertainers in the world, agreed to join my brilliant returning favourites as the Wizard of Pantomime.  This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to see one of the world’s greatest stars alongside the greatest performers in pantomime at the world’s greatest theatre.”
