Have you ever been watching a pantomime and thought to yourself, “What this needs is a murder”?
Neither had we, but this year it might just be unavoidable because the citizens of Pantoland are at breaking point dealing with their miserable monarch Queen Jezabella. She’s been raising taxes, taking land, placing curses, withholding promotions and even blackmailing her subjects.
Luckily, Agatha Twisty, the world’s greatest made-up detective and her trusty assistant Wadsworth are on hand should anyone decide to take matters into their own hands.
This is all the mayhem of panto with the the laughs of a very funny murder mystery - oh yes it is!

A Bunch of Amateurs

Keen to boost his flagging career, fading Hollywood action hero Jefferson Steele arrives in England to play King Lear in Stratford – only to find that this is not the birthplace of the Bard, but a sleepy Suffolk village. And instead of Kenneth Branagh and Dame Judi Dench, the cast are a bunch of amateurs trying to save their theatre from developers.
Jefferson’s monstrous ego, vanity and insecurity are tested to the limit by the enthusiastic am-dram thespians. As acting worlds collide and Jefferson’s career implodes, he discovers some truths about himself – along with his inner Lear!
Written by Private Eye stalwarts Ian Hislop and Nick Newman who first worked together on Spitting Image this is a laugh-a-minute show guaranteed to make your evening!
