White Rock Pavilion/Pantomimes

From Historical Hastings

No doubt like any theatre in the country, the White Rock Pavilion every year had a pantomime season over the Christmas period. During the 1960s, these were directed by 'Bunny Baron' direction and consisted of the following shows (because the shows ran into the new year period from Boxing Day, they are listed in the year of their review):

1960: Aladdin[1]
1961: Dick Whittington[2]
1962: Jack and the Beanstalk[3]
1963: Robinson Crusoe[4]
1964: Cinderella[5]
1965: Red Riding Hood[6]
1966: Aladdin[7]
