Dick Whittington

Book
Promotional poster for the pantomime 'Dick Whittington' featuring three characters: Dick Whittington in the centre, a woman in a colourful dress on the left, and a character in a traditional British Pantomime Dame costume on the right. A cat stands in the foreground. The background includes signs pointing to 'London' and 'Huddersfield' with the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral visible.
A performer stands on stage in a dramatic pose, holding a wooden stick with a red cloth bundle tied to the top, raised high. They wear a white shirt with lace-up details, a brown vest, dark trousers, and black sneakers. The background features a dimly lit set resembling a village scene, adding depth and atmosphere to the performance.
Two performers are on stage in a vibrant and colourful setting. The character on the left wears a whimsical, oversized outfit featuring a green shirt, striped overalls, a bright orange backwards cap, and red sneakers, with an expressive, comedic pose and exaggerated facial expression. The character on the right is dressed as a princess, wearing a bright costume with a red and blue bodice, puffy white sleeves, and a skirt decorated with floral patterns, paired with white sneakers.
A performer dressed as a lively animal character, possibly a cat or dog, sings into a glittery microphone. The costume features brown fur-like fabric, a blue scarf-like accessory, and a headband with fuzzy animal ears. The performer's face is painted with whiskers and a white muzzle, adding to the character's playful look.
A dynamic stage scene featuring a performer in a striking red and black costume with textured fur details, standing at the centre with one arm confidently pointing upward. Surrounding the performer are a group of children dressed as playful rats, wearing leather vests, furry leg warmers, and bandanas with mouse ears. The vibrant, theatrical backdrop is a stylized dungeon-like setting with arches and columns, illuminated by colourful stage lighting.
A comedic stage scene featuring a performer dressed as Elvis Presley in a dazzling white jumpsuit adorned with colourful rhinestones and a large metallic belt, complete with oversized sunglasses and an exaggerated pout. Beside them, a flamboyant character in an over-the-top pink costume with heart-shaped details, a massive glittery bow, and dramatic makeup strikes a humorous pose, squishing Elvis's cheeks.
A vibrant and comedic stage scene featuring two characters in exaggerated costumes. On the left, a woman in a bright blue dress with white trim and a sailor-style collar expresses mock fear, her mouth open in a dramatic scream. On the right, a larger-than-life character in an elaborate polka-dot and ruffled outfit leans toward her with a playful, exaggerated scowl.
A lively stage scene featuring three central performers and supporting cast in a colourful and energetic pose. In the middle, a performer dressed as a cat strikes a playful clawing gesture, wearing a brown furry costume with cat ears. On the left, a character in a glittering white suit with pink accents beams enthusiastically with arms outstretched. On the right, a character in a medieval-inspired tunic leans forward, laughing with arms open wide.
