Hessle town hall
I'm incredibly proud to serve as both Chair and Membership Secretary for our wonderful company. The Hessle Theatre Company has a rich history of bringing exceptional and captivating performances to our community. Our passion lies in the magic of theatre—from the hard work and dedication of our talented cast and crew, to the joy of seeing a packed house filled with our amazing audiences.
Hessle Theatre Company is thrilled to bring you their much-anticipated family pantomime for 2025 — Mother Goose! Bursting with slapstick comedy, spectacular characters, and all the boos, hisses, and "he's behind you!" moments you could wish for, this is classic British panto at its very best.
Join the loveable Mother Goose and her feathered family on a magical adventure filled with good versus evil, laugh-out-loud humour, and plenty of festive fun for the whole family. Whether you're five or eighty-five, there's something for everyone in this timeless pantomime tale.
Thank you so much to everyone who auditioned for Mother Goose. We had some egg-sellent auditionees perform for us and we are proud to announce our cast for our 2025 pantomime.
