“So it is looking really good and we have a lot of special effects such as pyrotechnics.
“There are also a lot of up-to-date numbers and a lot of music people will know, as well as the traditional pantomime elements.”
Taking on the lead roles in this year’s show will be Emma Anderson, 17, who will star as Snow White, while Elle Payne, 17, will take on the role of the Prince.
