Your SU is helping you get into the Christmas spirit as we team up with the Sunderland Empire to offer you an exclusive student ticket deal for University of Sunderland students. 

We have 60 tickets on offer at just £10 each, for seats in the stalls, so you'll be at the heart of the panto fun!

From screen to stage, star of Emmerdale and Ackley Bridge, Charlie Hardwick is set to sprinkle festive fairy dust in the role of Fairy Bon Bon. And back by popular demand, is North East Queen of Comedy, the fabulous Miss Rory (Boulevard) bringing the glamour as Rorina La Plonk.

Joining them is Channel 5 Milkshake! presenter Olivia Birchenough as kind-hearted bookworm Belle and Wearside’s favourite panto comic Tom Whalley as Louis La Plonk. Plus, West End star Samuel Wyn-Morris (Les Misérables) as the monstrous Beast.

Join Belle, The Beast, Fairy Bon Bon, Rorina La Plonk and her cheeky chappy son Louis La Plonk, alongside a whole host of larger than life characters, as they are transported to a cursed castle under the spell of an evil enchantress. Can the arrogant Hugo be defeated? Can Belle see beyond the Beast and fall in love with her captor? Will the Beast’s heart be melted by Belle’s beauty?

With laugh-out-loud comedy, sumptuous costumes, fabulous scenery, a thrilling transformation scene and an award winning script by Jon Monie (Winner Best Script – Great British Pantomime Awards) be our guest for a magical panto that's not to be missed!

We know that students with families and young children will want to share this experience with their loved ones, so we are making it so that you can book up to 4 tickets per student account. Unfortunately due to the limited number of tickets we have available, and to make the process as fair as possible to seat as many students, we cannot offer more than this at point of booking for this offer.

If you are booking alone and would like to be sat alongside other friends who also have booked their student tickets through us, you will be asked at check out for your tickets and we will endevour to sit you together.
