*Panto Announcement* - Damian Patton comes to Yeovil as our Dandini

We are really excited to announce Damian Patton will be joining us this December to play the role of Dandini in our festive pantomime, Cinderella!

Damian Patton as Dandini

Damian fell in love with the magic of live entertainment from an early age. Performing really is in his blood as his mother was a professional dancer, his Father part of ‘The Patton Brothers’ and his uncles ‘The Chuckle Brothers’. He was constantly travelling as a child and even learnt to walk backstage!

Damian loves to make people laugh and went straight into panto upon leaving 6th form in 2008. This will be his 17th Pantomime in a row and Christmas would not be the same without it! He even met his wife Eliza back in 2010 in Pantomime when he was appearing as one of the ugly sisters. Luckily, she could see past the false eyelashes and lipstick and the rest is history.

Throughout the rest of the year Damian can be found touring the country with his one man show.

This will be Damian’s 3rd time performing with Evolution. 2021 saw him play Muddles in Snow white - Assembly halls Tunbridge wells. Last year he played Billy in Jack and The Beanstalk - Alban Arena, St Albans.

Damian’s Panto credits include: Red Riding Hood Bolton Albert halls (2007), Goldilocks Billingham Forum (2008), Aladdin Leicester Peepul Centre (2009), Cinderella National tour (2010), Aladdin National tour (2011), Red Riding Hood The Forum Theatre Barrow-in-Furness (2012) Jack and the Beanstalk Bolton Albert Halls (2013) Snow White Hazlitt Theatre (2014), Dick Whittington Scarborough Spa (2015),  Cinderella Belfast Grand Opera House (2016), Cinderella Whitley Bay Playhouse (2017), Cinderella Princess Alexandra Auditorium Yarm (2018).
