A wave of her magic wand and once again, Halton’s own Charlotte Dacia is back for the Brindley Theatre’s annual festive pantomime.

This year, Charlotte will be playing Fairy Peapod in the family favourite Jack & the Beanstalk, which runs from Wednesday 7 December and Sunday 8 January.

Charlotte began performing at the tender age of three at a local theatre school. She started to compete in events across the country and quickly became a national title holder in singing and musical theatre competitions in the UK.

Charlotte then went on to study at The Hammond School in Chester, with a DADA Award scholarship, graduating with a National Diploma in Professional Musical Theatre. Since graduating, she has appeared in several professional shows, UK tours and pantomimes, has recorded at the prestigious Angel Studios in London and performed for a year in Cyprus as a singer/dancer in a touring musical theatre company and has appeared twice at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall alongside Britain’s Got Talent finalist Beau Dermott.

In 2014, Charlotte was cast as a principal vocalist on board the prestigious Silversea World Cruise performing a variety of musical theatre, pop, rock, classical and opera and performed her own cabaret show Musicals and Mischief.

Charlotte’s one woman show An Audience with Charlotte Dacia was received with critical acclaim at  the Brindley Theatre for three years running and is one of her proudest achievements. Charlotte is also a vocal coach and dance teacher for Art in Motion dance and theatre school, Runcorn and is training to become an Estill Voice Training vocal coach. In addition, she is a keen long distance runner, running several marathons a year for various charities. Charlotte cannot wait to return to the beautiful Brindley theatre stage this Christmas and spread some festive cheer and fairy magic!
