Snow White at the Epstein Theatre, Liverpool: dates, cast and how to book

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is the Christmas panto at the Epstein Theatre on Hanover Street in Liverpool. It runs from Saturday 5 December 2026 to Sunday 3 January 2027, and tickets start at £13.

It's a Regal Entertainments production, the company that does the St Helens Theatre Royal pantos, and the headline this year is that Ryan Mulvey from Coronation Street is making his stage debut as the prince.

The story

When the Magic Mirror declares Snow White the fairest of them all, the Wicked Queen decides to do something about it. Snow White ends up in the forest with seven new friends, and it's the usual race between true love and a poisoned apple.

Who's in it

• Ryan Mulvey, Brody Michaelis in Coronation Street and JJ Osborne in Hollyoaks before that, plays Prince Fredrick. Altrincham lad, trained in Manchester
• Leanne Campbell appears in person as the Magic Mirror. She's done five years of panto at the Liverpool Empire and was the Fairy Godmother in Cinderella at St Helens last year
• Directed by Chantelle Joseph

More casting is still to be announced.
