THEATRAU SIR GÅR
THE magic of pantomime returns to Carmarthen this Christmas as the town's Lyric Theatre unveils the cast for festive spectacular Snow White with a special virtual guest appearance from a town-born star.
Produced for the third consecutive year by Theatrau Sir Gar, in partnership with leading UK pantomime producer Imagine Theatre, this year's show, which takes place between December 11 and 29, promises laughter, music and plenty of sparkle for the whole family.
Carmarthen's own stand-up comedian and podcaster, Elis James, will make a special virtual appearance as the Spirit of the Mirror. Although Snow White marks his pantomime debut, the Lyric Theatre holds a special place in his heart, having performed there many times, including filming a Christmas special for S4C last year.
Fans can also look forward to his return in spring 2026, when he brings his hit podcast, The Socially Distanced Sports Bar, to the Lyric stage.
Another Carmarthen favourite, Steve Elias, will once again take to the stage as Dame Dolly Mixture, following his hugely popular turn as the dame in last year's Beauty and the Beast.
