Thursday

Sunderland Empire
and UK Productions are delighted
to announce a truly wicked cast
for this year’s Christmas
pantomime – Snow White and
the Seven Dwarfs!

and screen Su Pollard will take
on the dastardly role of the
Wicked Queen, alongside
children’s TV favourite

Su Pollard will lead
the cast for the Sunderland
Empire's panto as the Wicked
Queen in Snow White and the Seven
Dwarfs
Pantomime audiences in Sunderland
will doubtless be saying Hi-De-Hi
later this year when Su Pollard leads the
cast of Snow White and the Seven
Dwarfs.
Having established herself as a
bit of a panto legend since
winning the nation’s hearts
as chalet maid Peggy in the BBC
holiday camp sitcom, Su has also
notched up countless roles in
musical theatre and drama too.
She will next be seen in a
national tour of Ha Ha Hood and
the Prince of Leaves, but will
come to the Sunderland Empire as
the Wicked Queen who can’t
bear to hear that Snow White is
fairer than she is.
