Harrogate Theatre has announced that Tim Stedman will star in this year’s pantomime once again.
Mr Stedman will be making his 24th panto appearance in Harrogate, where he has become a huge fan favourite playing the fool.
He will take on the role of Phillipe Fillop in Beauty and the Beast, which will run from Wednesday, November 27 to Sunday, January 19.
The announcement was met with joy by fans on social media who posted comments such as ‘Tim IS Harrogate panto’ and ‘the man is the very definition of a legend’.
Mr Stedman previously spoke to the Stray Ferret about performing in Harrogate in an interview here.
Harry Wyatt
The theatre also announced Harry Wyatt will return to take on the role of Madame Bellie Fillop the sous chef.
Further cast announcements have yet to be made but Howard Chadwick, who co-starred with Mr Stedman for many years in Harrogate, won’t be back in 2024.
