The search is on to find a junior ensemble to star alongside TOWIE’s James Argent in a panto being staged in Tenby this Christmas.

The family pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk will run at the De Valence Pavilion from Thursday, December 9 to Friday, December 31, with The Only Way is Essex’s Arg leading the line-up.

But now the search is on to find 60 young people, aged between 7 and 16, from across the county to form three groups of 20 to perform alongside the TOWIE star.

The talented young performers will form the junior ensemble working with a cast of professional performers direct from the West End.

Director and Producer Drew Baker of Vision Arts Wales said: “Being part of a professional pantomime is a big commitment, there are a lot of rehearsals and then so many shows, some of which are at 10 am in the morning!

“However, there is so much fun to be had and what an opportunity for 60 young people to work with an amazing cast of professional performers and creative team.”

Registration is now open for the audition days which will take place on Saturday, July 10 and Sunday, July 11 in Haverfordwest.

The auditions will be in a workshop style, singing, dancing, and acting – all led by the creative team and a professional casting director.
