Dick Whittington the pantomime is set both in London and in the Polar Regions. Dick and his pet cat Tom battle with the villainous King and Queen Rat and their ratlings to stop them taking over the world. Guided by Fairy Bow-Bells, Dick and Tom brave a shipwreck, the Ice Queen's territory (complete with a Yeti) and the powerful magical tail of King Rat to make a fortune big enough to impress Alderman Fitzwarren so that he will give Dick the hand of his daughter Alice. There's lots of slapstick along the way with the Alderman's wife Madame Gateau and Idle Jack, along with music, dancing and very silly jokes.
