We were invited along as guests to the show and had an 18, 15 and 11 year old with us, all of which thoroughly enjoyed the performance. 

Those larger than life characters are back for another hilarious instalment of the seasonal panto run and this year as always does not disappoint.

Audience favourites like Dame Lola return, along with those lovable characters Buddy and Laurel. This year it’s also great to see some new faces join the cast and dance ensemble and you won’t be disappointed by the performances.

Families will be familiar with the Rapunzel story, the lost princes who has magic healing hair. Helped by Flynn, Rapunzel sets out to explore life outside her tower and meets a host of wonderful characters along the way. Of course, there’s always the panto baddie and Rua Barron gives a super performance as Rapunzel’s mother, Gothel.
