The Riverfront Theatre and Arts Centre is thrilled to announce the newest addition to their cast for the eagerly anticipated 2023 pantomime, Beauty and the Beast. The exceptionally talented Hugo Joss Catton has been confirmed as the actor playing Prince Hilarion, who’s been cursed with the appearance of a Beast by the Evil witch Hecate.
A graduate of the prestigious London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) and Guildford School of Acting, Hugo Joss Catton will be bringing a wealth of experience to The Riverfront stage. His portfolio spans from captivating international tours to the grandeur of London's West End. Hugo also co-founded the acclaimed touring Burlesque theatre company, "Brass Monkey Burlesque," where he takes on the role of the charismatic Master of Ceremonies.
"We are delighted to welcome Hugo Joss Catton to The Riverfront family," says Jamie Anderson, Creative Development Manager at The Riverfront Theatre and Arts Centre. "His talent will be a fantastic addition to the existing cast members, who together will undoubtedly provide our audiences with an unforgettable experience."
Just a few weeks ago, The Riverfront hosted its Panto Press Day, where they gathered cast members to capture the magic that will soon grace the 2023 trailer and this weekend they held their auditions for their Young Company, and the response was nothing short of incredible. From cast announcements, cast photography sessions to young company auditions, the pantomime excitement at The Riverfront Theatre is palpable as the stage is set for a spectacular year ahead.
Don't miss the chance to witness this incredible cast and creative team at The Riverfront showcase this phenomenal production, brought to you by the same creative team as the record breaking shows Cinderella and Robin Hood. This enchanting pantomime promises to be a highlight of the 2023 theatrical season.
Beauty and the Beast will be at The Riverfront Theatre and Arts Centre from 29 November to 6 January. To book tickets and secure the dates you want head to The Riverfront’s website or call their box office team on 01633 656757.
