Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs at Ipswich Regent Theatre

12 to 31 December 2026 | Ipswich Regent Theatre

Oh yes it is! Christmas panto is back in Ipswich, and this year it’s the turn of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to take to the stage at the Regent Theatre.

Join Snow White as she tries to escape her wicked stepmother, the Wicked Queen. With help from her madcap friend Muddles, she meets a handsome Prince and sets off on a fairy-tale adventure packed with comedy, music and festive fun.

Expect familiar songs including Heigh-Ho and Whistle While You Work, alongside lively dance routines, colourful costumes and plenty of pantomime mischief. It’s a chance for children to join in with the story, cheer the heroes and boo the baddie, while grown-ups can enjoy a proper Christmas theatre outing too.

The 2026 cast includes Ellena Bacon as Snow White, Jay Aston as the Wicked Queen, AJ Jenks as the Prince, Andrew Goddard as the Wicked Queen’s Henchman and Peter Brad-Leigh as Nurse Nora. Mike McClean also returns to the Ipswich panto.

There are performances throughout the festive season, from Saturday 12 December to Thursday 31 December 2026. Special performances include a relaxed performance and a BSL-interpreted and audio-described show on Sunday 27 December, plus an adult 16+ performance on Tuesday 29 December.
