Stephen's last day of panto!!

Stephen has now completed his run of Panto, playing Buttons at the Marlowe theatre in Canterbury!! The panto continues until the 22nd January, the part of Buttons will now be played by Paul Hendy, Director of this years panto!

This is so that Stephen can take part as the host of Britain's Got more Talent which will be in it's 6th series! Auditions start in Manchester on the 20th January, travelling up and down the country until Middle of Febuary in search of new talent.

What would have already been an emotional last day of panto for him was made more emotional after the death of Kent's Panto legend Dave Lee!! Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family, friends and loved ones of Dave. I didn't really know much about him until this years panto but heard so many lovely things about him and its very saddening to hear of the loss of a kind hearted man who did so much for the Kent community!!

Long live Dave's famous Ghost Bench scene at the Marlowe!! R.I.P.

Cinderella Panto review 2011

After going to see the Cinderella panto at the Marlowe theatre in Canterbury, I can assure you that those still yet to see it are in for a real treat, and would seriously recommend it to anyone who can get there!!

The Cinderella story is put across beautifully by a very talented cast, including John Partridge (Christian from Eastenders) as Prince Charming who will amaze you with his singing, the very funny Ben Roddy as Dandini, Kate Quinnell makes a beautiful Cinderella, Sue Devaney with her rhyming couplets and her 'Prince Charming moments'. Michael J Batchelor and Ian Smith play the ugly sisters, Eugenie and Beatrice and of course Stephen Mulhern who makes the cutest Buttons ever!! ... And i think Fred Bear also deserves a special mention as he plays a very important role...

The highlights

- The dancers in the opening sequence, they're so talented.

- The Market stall scene between Buttons and Dandini will have you doubled up laughing.

- When Prince Charming first sings. Just Amazing!!

- Buttons in a onesie <3

- Cinderella's Horse and Carriage...

- The famous Ghost bench, with the famous 'It's behind you' shoutouts from the crowd and 'Oh well, we'll have to do it again then' and just all audience participation.

- When the ugly sisters try on Cinderella's Glass slipper, too funny!

- Stephens magic tricks and shoutouts!!

- The final song when everyone gets up to dance!!

Theres also lots of references to Eastenders and Britain's got talent in it too that will keep the older audience amused!! So all in all, the perfect panto for all of the family!!

Panto runs until the 22nd January 2012 and Tickets can be purchased HERE

Enjoy!! I Know you'll love it if you do go!!

Cinderella 2011 - He's behind you ...

Well he isn't really!! ...

It's that time of year again... Panto season!!
Stephen is no stranger to panto! In the past he's done Mother Goose in Croydon and appeared in Aladdin and Snow white, both in Canterbury!! Last year he played Aladdin, again, in Nottingham which had a 3D genie!! It was pretty amayzing!! Lots of laughs and Stephen sings!!

And this year, he is set to return to Canterbury playing the role of Buttons at the Marlowe Theatre's production of Cinderella!!

The panto will be running from the 2nd of December until the 22nd January and you can purchase your tickets HERE 

It will be a good day or evening out for all of the family, and Team mullers shall be there, so we may see some of you there too??!

And a bit of useless info for you, when booking your tickets, Row C will be the front row, not row A in which I thought it would be!!

Hope to see you there
