Wyvern Theatre Director Derek Aldridge said: “Adam is quite simply one of the most famous faces on TV and I am delighted to welcome him back to the Wyvern stage to play one of pantomime’s iconic roles. I can promise that this year’s production will be truly spectacular and will be the perfect Christmas treat.”
