Winner of Best Pantomime at the UK Pantomime Awards 2025

“Anthony Spargo has created a fresh, very funny adaptation of Dick Whittington with an idiosyncratic twist on the familiar story” – ★★★★ The Stage

“Spargo’s script exemplifies pure panto genius. Dick Whittington and his Cat is fresh, vibrant, well-structured and offers the perfect balance of romance, quest and comedy. Truly innovative. ” – Simon Sladen – British Theatre Guide

“Anthony Spargo’s Dick Whittington is a riot of fun and silliness! It’s all wonderfully unhinged! He crams in heaps of pop culture references to delight all the adults in the audience. The jokes are brilliantly judged. ” – Fairy Powered Productions

“Spargo takes a classic panto and sprinkles it with surprises. His script is witty, with plenty of word play and a nice balance of adult and family-friendly humour.” – The Family Stage
