4 Extra Debut. Arthur Askey, Anita Harris, Kenneth Connor and Alfred Marks star in the traditional panto about a very unusual cat. From 1979.
Arthur Askey, Anita Harris, Kenneth Connor and Alfred Marks star in this traditional pantomime, recorded in front of a live audience.
Happyland is being terrorised by a giant ogre and his tax-collecting henchman Baron Skinflint.
Tom, the miller鈥檚 son, falls in love with Princess Rose Petal, and dreams of winning her heart. His recently widowed mother, Dame Flora, has her sights set on the King.
Then a magic sunbeam transforms his cat into the clever Puss-in-Boots. Can Puss help Tom defeat Baron Skinflint and his greedy ogre and win the princess鈥� heart?
Featuring rousing songs and terrible jokes, it's perfect seasonal entertainment for all the family. Oh, yes it is!
The orchestra and Charles Young Singers are under the direction of Graham Ripley, who wrote the music.
