Christmas window displays inspired by Sleeping Beauty are now on show at Smiths of Harrogate.
The family business is supporting Harrogate Theatre’s production of the pantomime this Christmas. India, an illustrator who also works with the theatre, has created artwork for Smiths.
On 5 and 6 December, actor Tim Steadman will bring his pantomime character Silly Sidney to the beds department for a special weekend at the store.
Oliver Smith, who represents the fifth generation of the family at Smiths of Harrogate, said:
“There is something really special about two organisations that have been part of Harrogate for well over a century coming together like this.
“Harrogate Theatre opened in 1900 and Smiths followed in 1906.
"We’ve both seen the town change enormously during that time, but we’ve also both remained very much part of the community."
He added:
“The pantomime is an important part of Christmas in Harrogate for so many families, including ours, and we’re incredibly pleased to be supporting it this year.
“And, of course, Sleeping Beauty couldn’t be a more appropriate pantomime for us.
"Beds have been at the heart of Smiths for generations – although we can’t promise that any of ours will keep you asleep for a hundred years!”
