For the perfect fix of festive fun, Venue Cymru's production Sleeping Beauty is still open for all comers until Sunday, December 29 - oh yes it is!

This year’s sensational family spectacular has starred former Coronation Street actor and Loose Women presenter Sherrie Hewson, ventriloquist Kieran Powell - and his friends including Dave the Megasaurus - and veteran dame Nigel Ellacott in a show Pioneer reporter Dale Spridgeon noted was filled with "sparkle and razzmatazz".

Jonathan Kiley, the Qdos Entertainment show's executive producer, said: “Without question Sherrie is a national treasure, not only a wonderful comic actress but one of pantomime’s best leading ladies.

"We’re delighting to have her starring in Llandudno alongside the wonderful Kieran and Nigel. We’re planning plenty of wonderful surprises to ensure this year’s production will be packed full of laughter, festive magic and fun for all the family.”
