"The Pleasance [theatre] has been at the heart of our community for 30 years, and local theatre like this deserves our support, Corbyn said. Panto brings people together it's fun, inclusive and a brilliant celebration of creativity. It's a pleasure to conjure up a little festive magic with the Pleasance in their 30th year. Local theatre is where the real wizardry happens sparking imagination and spreading a bit of joy."
"Jeremy's as much a part of Islington as the Yellow Brick Road is of Oz so who better to play the Wizard of Oz-lington? His cameo adds a touch of local sparkle to our wickedly funny festive panto, which marks Pleasance's first in over 20 years and raises the curtain on our 30th anniversary celebrations."
"The theatre said: This Wicked-inspired pantomime Wicked Witches A Popular Panto! will whisk audiences down the Yellow Brick (Caledonian) Road for a gloriously camp Christmas spectacular, packed with cabaret, pop parody and plenty of laughs for those young and old alike. Expect soaring vocals, sparkly spells, and more sass than you can shake a wand at."
Jeremy Corbyn, the former Labour leader who now sits as an independent MP, will make an onscreen cameo as the Wizard of Oz-lington in a drag pantomime called Wicked Witches at the Pleasance theatre in north London. The Pleasance is marking its 30th anniversary and is staging its first pantomime in over 20 years. The production will blend cabaret, pop parody and pantomime humour with soaring vocals, sparkly spells and camp Christmas spectacle aimed at all ages. Corbyn has formed a new leftwing party with former Labour MP Zarah Sultana, still known unofficially as Your party.
