On October 27, London’s East End will be filled with pantomime dames endeavouring to raise loads of money for two local charities by running a kilometre.
Actually, it’s not only Dames who’ll be welcomed, but anyone who wants to dress up as any panto character that they fancy.
The run begins at 1pm at one of the charities – St Joseph’s Hospice in Mare Street – and ends at the other – the Hackney Empire itself – where there’ll be a Family Fun Day for all the participants and anyone who’s come to watch. A tea dance, refreshments, music and a drumming workshop will also be on offer, as well as chance to mingle with dames famous and infamous, all of them rather puffed out.
Advanced registration is £15 per adult, £5 per child (0-16) with a family rate of £35.
