Reviews

“If you’re looking for a festive treat that will have you laughing, singing, and even dancing in the aisles, look no further than Jack and the Beanstalk at the Gatehouse Theatre. This year’s panto is a sensational mix of high-energy fun, heartwarming moments, and truly stand-out performances that make it an unforgettable night for all ages.” Vibe 1

“This Fee-Fi-Fo-Fumtastic performance, held in a delightful and intimate setting, provides laughter for the whole family (including terrible jokes galore)! The performance is vibrant, fast-moving and we absolutely loved it! The fairy-tale plot that we all know and love is interlaced with jokes, innuendo, songs and pantomime clichés!” Yeah Lifestyle
