A pantomime programme from the Hippodrome Theatre, Bristol, from 1963, for The Sleeping Beauty, starring Morecambe & Wise with Edmund Hockridge, Judy Clare, Eddie Molloy and Tessa Jarvis.
In the early 1960s Eric and Ernie were rising television stars, and panto seasons at major provincial theatres were a key part of their year.
