Puss in Boots, fun for the whole family
I thoroughly enjoyed the show. It allowed my inner child to delight in the joy of pantomime. My adult side guffawed heartily at the corner gags , clever quips and nudge nudge wink wink moments.
I think that with the brilliant use of vibrant sets, many costume changes -lots of them whacky – and ongoing action, a cast of 11 appeared to be swelled to at least 20.
I sang along heartily during all the songs. I particularly loved the true panto format of the audience being spoken to and included, the dame, the participation song , the ghosts and the line song.
It’a joy to watch the uncensored response of the little ones; so engrossed and so honest.
I cannot single out a single character. Each one adds their own nuance and “magic. ”
In these worrying times, it’s so vital to escape the madness for a few hours and be thrilled and delighted.
Thank you Greg, Stephen and all the cast and crew.
Thanks Sharon – it really is a fun show.
