This
egg-cellent production will be scaling new heights at The Epstein Theatre from
Thursday 29 March – Sunday 8 April and tickets are on-sale now.
Multi-talented
singer, dancer and actor, Ray first came to attention in 2000 playing Anthony
Murray on Channel 4’s Brookside, and won the hearts of the nation in 2006 on
ITV’s The X Factor where he went all the way to the final, finishing runner-up.
Following
the success of The X Factor, Ray’s debut album Doing It My Way entered the
charts at number 1, selling over 300,000 copies without even releasing a
single.
He
then skated to victory not once, but twice on the ITV show Dancing On Ice first
as Series 4 champion in 2009, and then again on the All Stars series in 2014.
No
stranger to the theatre stage, Ray has appeared in some of the biggest hit
shows including Grease, Dirty Dancing and Legally Blonde and most recent, in
the UK tour of the smash musical The Wedding Singer starring as Glen.
On
joining the cast, Ray Quinn said: “I am absolutely thrilled to be coming home
to Liverpool and appearing on The Epstein stage. There is no better feeling
than playing to an audience in your home town! Panto is great fun, I always
have a great time and I can’t wait to be back. I’ll see you at Easter
Liverpool!”
LHK
Productions Managing Director Lee Kelly added: “We are delighted to have cast
Ray as Jack for our Easter panto. He is a local lad, audiences from Liverpool
know and love him! He is a true professional, and has appeared in some of the
UK’s biggest stage shows, so I know he will be a great addition to the show!”
Jack
and the Beanstalk is the tallest of gloriously tall panto tales, telling the
story of hapless hero Jack who swaps the family cow for a bag of beans.
With a beanstalk reaching the heavens, golden geese and
hungry giants, this show really is too big to miss.
