She’s playing panto villain Carabosse over the festive season – but comedian Bippo teased she’s struggled to learn her lines.
Bippo – who plays The Castle Clown joked – “This is the show starring Katie Price, she’s amazing. She’s actually learned two of her 25 lines – it’s fantastic.”
After a roar of laughter from the crowd, he added: “I’m joking, you’ll see her. She is absolutely amazing.”
Katie has been paid £60,000 for the stint on stage, with her last show booked for December 30.
She’s been performing in front of 11,000 people every night in the run-up to Christmas.
But panto organisers have reduced ticket prices in the wake of her receiving scathing reviews from some audience members.

Katie was branded a “disgrace” and accused of failing to learning the pantomime’s dance routines.
Now, the M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool has slashed the price of tickets to Sleeping Beauty by 25 percent.
In a post on its official Facebook page, organisers said: “Calling all fairy tale fans!
“Sleeping Beauty has awakened at the M&S Bank Arena, and she’s spinning a magical Christmas adventure for the whole family!
“For a limited time, get 25% off selected shows.*
“Book your tickets now and escape into a world where dreams come true (and curses get broken by true love’s kiss!).”
Katie, 45, admitted she struggled with her first “extreme” stage role and is exhausted.
She said: “I am broken, knackered. If I have to read another script line…
“My head is ready to explode. For the past six days I’ve had to learn a full script, dance songs for panto that I don’t know or I’ve never even heard of.”
She added: “On top of that my nerves. The stress I’ve put on myself this week is ridiculous. I have ballsed my lines up and had to make some stuff up, so hopefully nobody noticed it.”
