Lincoln’s very own Craig Hollingsworth will be performing with Cannon and Ball in Lincoln Theatre Royals Christmas Pantomime, Cinderella.
Craig is no stranger to the stage at the theatre as he spent many years performing as part of the Lincoln Theatre Royal School during his school years. After leaving school Craig went on to achieve a BTEC in Performing Arts at Lincoln College. Craig’s passion for acting came when he performing in his first Nativity play at primary school, and from there his excitement around acting grew.
During his professional career Craig has had a wide array of jobs. He spent six months cruising around the Caribbean on Royal Caribbean Cruises as part of their entertainment crew, performing daily too many cruise guests. He has worked in television with parts in Emmerdale, Casualty and Doctors. Craig’s main passion, and his current job is presenting a magic tricks. He loves being able to entertain both adults and children, and coming up with new tricks.
When asked about performing in his home town, Craig said “it’s great to be performing back at the Theatre Royal. It’s like playing for your home team at your home ground. After spending many years here at the Theatre Royal School, it’s great to come back and be part of the Christmas Panto, and being able to perform with Tommy Cannon and Booby Ball, as well as Michelle (Hardwick) and Nicola (Weeks) is great. We’re looking forward to getting in and starting rehearsals.
