Attic's winning panto formula
 


THE Attic Theatre has yet again produced a winning panto formula.

Sleeping Beauty opened at the Arts Theatre to a capacity audience.

As always, the cast production team and musicians have struck exactly the right note with an action-packed performance which appeals to children of all ages.

Perhaps the secret of their success is due to the fact that all the performers thoroughly enjoy themselves and involve children in every mad-cap adventure and sing-along.

Good special effects and slap-stick humour add to the entertainment.

Children are transported into the magic world of traditional panto by the wicked fairy Snapdragon, Jokin' Johnny, Dora the Cook, Dobbin the horse and Patch the Cat.

Princess Beauty and Prince Splendid were well played last night by Claire Foster and Debbie Boyd.

Is this panto at its very best?  Oh yes it is!
