Dick Whittington

An Oxford Playhouse production

Written and directed by Toby Hulse

All aboard for London Town – the magic of panto awaits!

Join us for the tradition that is an Oxford Playhouse pantomime. There’s a charming adventure on the way with Dick Whittington, full of laughter, mischief, magic and plenty of panto sparkle. Brought to you by the award-winning team (Special Recognition Award for Innovation at The Pantomime Awards 2025) who created Sleeping Beauty and Jack & The Beanstalk.

Proper crafty Liam Rattagher and his dodgy brother Noel are conjuring up a masterplan to take over the world. They want things to be just how they like them… bland! Can our hero Dick Whittington get rid of all the dull and make Britannia cool again? Maybe, but they’ll need a bit of the help from a magical cat and a gang of unlikely sidekicks.

Board the bus to London Town for this riotous and uplifting tale of friendship, music, 90s cool and Britpop.

It’s going to be rat-tastic!!
