Hackney Empire postpones pantomime starring Clive Rowe until 2021

Hackney Empire has announced that their planned 2020 pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk, will now run from 20 November 2021 - 2 January 2022, starring Clive Rowe as Dame Daisy Trott.

This will mark the 22nd pantomime at the East London venue and 14th panto appearance from award-winning performer, Rowe.

Artistic Director Yamin Choudury and Executive Director Jo Hemmant of Hackney Empire said: "Every year pantomimes across the country create opportunities for audiences of all ages and backgrounds to experience first-hand the incredible and transformative effects of live performance in theatre. For many, it is a first of its kind; a truly inclusive, representative and multigenerational access point to arts and culture in theatre, and this is particularly true here at Hackney Empire.

"So it means a lot more to us than 'just not being able to put on a show', it means we have to work doubly hard to create a powerful, magical, exciting and fun experience for you all in 2021 and we can't wait to welcome you back next year to do just that!"
