The Puzzling Pantomime

The annual Shaftesbury Arts Centre Theatre Company Pantomime returns this year, bigger than ever.

Come and join us for The Puzzling Pantomime, a magical, mischievous and laugh-out-loud adventure where all your favourite pantomimes collide!

Oh no, he hasn’t…! The devious Baron Blackheart has been up to no good, stealing magical items from some of the most beloved pantomimes. Without them, the magic is fading, and the world of pantomime will never be the same again!

But all is not lost! With the help of the fabulous Dame Dolly, her son Bobby, the theatre caretaker Fred, and one very important ingredient — YOU, the audience — we must recover the missing treasures before time runs out.

Can our unlikely heroes outwit the wicked Baron Blackheart? Will the magic be restored? And will everything go according to plan? Well, this is pantomime… so what could possibly go wrong?!

Packed with hilarious comedy, larger-than-life characters, plenty of audience participation and all the twists, turns and lots of cake, The Puzzling Pantomime promises fun for the whole family. Join us for a pantomime packed with mystery, mayhem and magic!
