After 11 magical years of bringing panto to your Christmas, we’ve made the difficult decision to take a year away from the stage.
Our wonderful cast have faced a lot this year – from health challenges and family bereavements, to new jobs and heavier workloads. As much as we adore being part of your Christmas traditions, it has meant sacrificing our own festive time for more than a decade. This year, we feel it’s important to pause, recharge, and enjoy Christmas with our own families.
We’re so grateful for your love, laughter and loyal support over the years – you truly are the best audiences anyone could ask for.
This isn’t a goodbye, just a little break. We’ll be taking time to rest, reflect, and come back with renewed energy (and plenty of silly jokes) when the time is right.
Thank you for understanding and for being part of our story – we couldn’t do it without you.
