Kitten in Heels, Lost Theatre – Review
It might be labelled as adult, but don't let that put you off. The adult nature is just some dodgy innuendo and colourful language, but nothing should cause much offence to anyone willing to give it a try.

Clementine’s Seasonal Spectacular, Rosemary Branch Theatre – Review
This show is an excellent way to begin the festive season, with extraordinary characters and personalities throughout.

Jack and the Beanstalk, Hackney Empire – Review
Cheesy but in the best possible sense of the word. Pantomime season is well and truly off to a cracking start!
-
Aladdin, Shaw Theatre – Review
A great-looking and truly contemporary panto with nifty dance routines and familiar songs to tap your feet along to.
-
Robin Hood, The Tramshed – Review
A fun, thoroughly modern Christmas pantomime
-
Cinderella and the Beanstalk, Theatre 503 – Review
A smart, funny and affectionate homage to the traditional pantomime.
-
Treasure Island, the Curse of the Pearl Necklace, Above the Stag – Review
A rip-roaring pantomime packed with innuendo and some extremely close-to-the-bone gags, so (knowingly) bad that it was good
-
Billy the Kid, Rosemary Branch Theatre – Review
A fun, silly, intimate Christmas panto. Definitely worth trying to get a ticket, but remember the front row is only for the brave...
-
Pride & Prejudice: The Panto, Cockpit Theatre – Review
A brilliantly funny adaptation of a classic Austen novel, which faithfully honours the original story while adding some hilarious contemporary references.

Sleeping Beauty – An Adult Pantomime, Hen and Chickens Theatre – Review
Filthy but delicious. A fun way to spend an evening out with your friends and most definitely away from your kids.
