The lead cast of Santa Claus – The Musical descended on New Theatre Royal on 19 July to launch our Christmas show.
Dressed in full costume, the glittering line up celebrated the launch of the hit West End show with members of the local press on the hottest day of the year.
Former member of Brit award-winning boyband A1, Mark Read will be playing the role of Joe the Chief Elf commented, “What a fun day – Christmas in July! I’m looking forward to coming back in December, when it’s cooler.”
