Welcome To POCKET-PANTO

Bringing all the magic of Panto to you!

  

The aim of Pocket Panto is to produce a small scale traditional family pantomime with large scale production values and take it out into the local community to venues such as schools, libraries, pubs, clubs and community centres. These performances will not only be at the traditional Christmas period but will be throughout the year. (Try telling a five to eleven year old it’s too early for panto!) Using a cast of three talented professional actors, Pocket Panto will bring the whole pantomime experience to each venue. With live singing, dancing, slapstick, audience participation and with the emphasis very much on family entertainment, there truly will be something for everyone.
