Your dreams will come true at the UK’s biggest regional pantomime this Christmas with award-winning television presenter, radio DJ, podcaster and number one best-selling author Rylan as the Diva of Dreams, and the return of Birmingham panto legend Matt Slack as Lester the Jester!
Joining them will be the celebrated West End star and acclaimed singer and presenter Zoe Birkett as Carabosse, and back for a 10th season is Birmingham’s favourite Dame, Andrew Ryan, as The Queen.
Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom, Princess Aurora receives a birthday present from her wicked aunt Carabosse. A single prick of an enchanted spinning wheel places her under a cruel curse and sends her into a century of slumber! Will true love endure? Will The Prince break the spell? Come and find out in a panto packed with magic, music, comedy and dazzling special effects.
Join us as Sleeping Beauty casts its spell over Birmingham Hippodrome. Featuring sets and costumes direct from The London Palladium, you won’t want to snooze on booking your tickets – once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Where?
Main Stage
Pantomime is loud for a small pair of ears,
Spectacular sights can sometimes cause tears!
If bringing a little one, please be aware
One or two scenes are intended to scare.
The odd naughty joke for grown-up laughter
Ensures that we all finish Happily Ever After.
