London’s No1 Adult Panto is back at Leicester Square Theatre - and this Christmas season it is Dick!, starring the legendary international DJ and celebrated nightclub diva, Miss Dusty O making her West End stage debut. Dick! plays a eight-week season from Thursday 29 November to Sunday 20 January.
Join our hero Dick! and his wallflower cat, 'Dave', on their adventures into London town, seeking fame, fortune and friends with benefits. Along the way meet the heiress to the 'Fitz-Nicely' fortune, 'Alice', with her long lost and debauched relative, 'Sofonda Cox', a faded showgirl with a dark, disgusting and delicious secret. Dick! and his new found friends dare to do battle against the evil-licious and diva-tastic 'Queen Runt', as they set sail upon the Leaky Vessel, journeying up the Streaky Crack on a quest to find the family jewels. Will 'Dave' always be alone? Will 'Alice' ever get Dick!? and what does the legend of the ‘Bell-End' actually mean? All will be uncensored by the new, Lord Mayor of London, as we finally find out if city hall can be run by a Dick!'
Miss Dusty O (Sofonda Cox). After working for designer Zandra Rjodes, Dusty turned to DJing - a career that has taken her to play in almost every European city, together with residencies at uber fashionable Bambina's at Venom in Leicester Square, Nancys at the End, the massive monthly club megalith PUSHCA, legendary club night BANG, seven years at The Limelight on Sunday night, Don’t Call Me Babe at the now sadly missed Ghetto (nine years), G-A-Y at The Astoria, Camp Attack and Heaven on Saturday for two years and Popcorn at Heaven on Monday for five years. Eight years ago, Dusty started the Trannyshack club night at what was then the Soho Revue Bar. This night is still going strong at Madame JoJo's and has developed a massive cult following. When not DJ'ing or hosting her own club nights, Dusty has recorded several singles and been featured on no fewer than five albums, most recently with the 2011 release of Wat 2 Do and a charity single in aid of an HIV charity together with a host of Soho faces and stars called Xmas In Soho.
DICK! IS STRICTLY ADULTS ONLY! (18+)
WARNING: Dick! is not for the faint hearted, easily offended or shockable. However you could give it a try, you never know, after all, there's nothing wrong with a little bit of DICK! NB: All puns intended.
