Written by Alan McHugh, directed by Ian Grieve, starring regular Perth panto dame Barrie Hunter and a cast of returning favourites, Dick McWhittington in Perth Concert Hall has all the ingredients for a feast of family fun this Christmas!

Dick McWhittington is on his way to London to seek fame and fortune and doesn't know that it is his destiny to save the city and become Provost. It's up to Perth's very own fairy godmother, the Fairy Maid of Perth, to bring him back. But Dick won't be alone. He'll stand side by side against Queen Rat with his very own ratcatcher - Kitty Cat - for a final showdown in the desert Kingdom of the great Sultan Vinegar.

Meanwhile, Stanley Mills' sweetie shop has been cleaned out by the rats, but he has a bigger problem in trying to avoid the affections of his shopkeeper, Senga McScruff. And how will our loveable numptie, Wee Sandy McScruff, cope when the love of his life, Melody Mills, falls for Dick?

Join Dick and his friends in Perth Concert Hall for another spectacular, fun filled, family panto from the team that brought you Beauty and the Beast.
