A Panto between the Pyramids - Wed 3rd - Sat 6th December 2025

A Panto between the Pyramids
by Rich Lock

Our last pantomime, A Little Panto on the Prairie, was such fun and such a success that we are planning to do the next one by the same author, Rich Lock. A Panto between the Pyramids is what it says on the can - a panto, with all the usual characters and jokes, set among the Pyramids of Egypt. This gives a lot of scope for the corniest of jokes as well a cast ranging from Sphinx the Cat to the Mummy itself.

Can our heroine Cleo, a street urchin named Niles, Dame Donna Kebab and the village idiot, Archie Ologist stand up to the Evil Pharaoh, Roche, and break the Curse of the Mummy?

Tickets will be on sale soon! Auditions will be held late July - watch this space or contact us for more information.
