Qdos Appoints Panto Managing Director Nick Thomas, Chairman of Qdos Entertainment, today announced that Michael Harrison, one of the country's most successful young producers, has been appointed Managing Director of the company's Pantomime Division. Qdos Entertainment is the world's largest pantomime producer. The company's 2007/08 season will see nineteen productions staged throughout the UK, with star names including John Barrowman, Wendi Peters and Brian Conley, as well as productions in Johannesburg and Dublin. Twenty eight year old Michael, who has produced and directed Qdos Entertainment's record-breaking pantomimes at Newcastle's Theatre Royal for the past few years, said, "I'm absolutely delighted to extend and enhance my relationship with Qdos and I am very excited to have the opportunity to help shape and direct the future of the company. It's such a pleasure to be involved with an organisation that shares my passion for top quality family entertainment in the great British tradition of pantomime. I'm also especially pleased to continue my association with Newcastle Theatre Royal. I am incredibly proud of the last two pantomimes at the Theatre Royal - Cinderella and Jack and the Beanstalk - and I am excited about this year's Aladdin which is already smashing our previous box office record." Welcoming him to the new role, Nick Thomas said, "Michael brings to this new position a wealth of creative talent and production skills that will see the Division develop and grow in the future. Michael and Qdos have enjoyed a fruitful relationship over the past few years and I am delighted that this new role will strengthen his association with the company." He will continue to produce independently. His future shows include a national tour of Andrew Lloyd-Webber's Aspects of Love, starring David Essex which opens its tour at Newcastle's Theatre Royal in August. An interview with Michael Harrison will appear shortly on the BTG.
