>DICK WHITTINGTON

New Wimbledon Theatre, London
14 January 2011



Dick Whittington - Dame Edna Everage brings a little Melbourne sophistication to South London. Big costumes, saucy sausage jokes and wonderful 3D projections...

What a great way to spend a chilly Saturday afternoon in January. We got together with a handful of great friends to laugh away a few hours. We loved it, the kids loved it and Barry Humphries worked the audience like a pro.

Featuring all the traditional pantomime ingredients; feel-good songs, a live band, dazzling dance routines, saucy slapstick comedy and bags of audience participation - Dick Whittington is a classic tale of rags to riches, and never fails to delight!


Dr Barry Humphries - Comedian, author and landscape painter!


Barry Humphries was born on 17 February 1934 in Kew, Melbourne. He is one of the most famous and successful Australians of his era. Besides his well-known and hugely successful career as a comedian, satirist and character actor, he is also a film producer and script writer, a star of London's West End musical theatre, an award-winning author and an accomplished landscape painter. He could also tell you a huge amount about Dadaism!
