Chico shot to fame as a finalist on the second series of X Factor and with his number one single Chico Time.

He said: “Expect the unexpected. It’s a fabulous story, it really is a great story. I’ve played Jack before – probably, this is my fifth one, so I kind of know a little bit about it. It’s probably one of my favourites. “I love it [doing panto], especially now I’ve got my two children and they’re a perfect age for panto. They’ve got that bug themselves, they’re the entertainers in the family – certainly my daughter is, 12 years old. One of us can sing in the family, trust me!”

The show promises fun, special effects, stunning sets, song and dance numbers and plenty of audience participation. Book tickets at 01424 462288 or whiterocktheatre.org.uk.
