"Flamboyant fun. Jaw-achingly funny. Peter Panto is no stinker but it will leave you hooked, lined...and wanting more!"
Last night, the wonderful Capital Theatres invited me along to their Festival Theatre to see their seasonal spectacle, The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan.
Confession: This was my first time at a panto in nearly 25 years! And after baring witness to the hilarity and festive fun on stage at 'Peter Panto', I'm shook and hooked once again!
Providing the chaos and showcasing their comedy chops are panto legends Allan Stewart, Grant Stott, and Jordan Young. Each commanding the stage when it was their time to shine.
With a fantastic supporting cast including Clare Gray, Kieran Lynch, and Britain's Got Talent's Flawless, complete with glitzy costumes and an impressive set that exceeds panto expectations, The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan is flamboyant fun, jaw achingly funny that will leave you hooked, lined...and wanting more!
The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan runs at the Festival Theatre until Sunday 31st December.
