"With a stellar cast, a superb script and plenty
of festive frolics, you’re in for a real treat!
Once again, the Gala has opted to produce its own pantomime
and once again it is in the safe hands of Simon Stallworthy,
who writes and directs." The Public Reviews
"What makes this pantomime particularly special,
for me, is the fact that it has been produced with such
honesty, sincerity and charm. Although there is no denying
that the big-bucks productions that boast the most spectacular
special effects, star-signings and all manner of gimmicks,
gizmos and technical wizardry are truly breath-taking,
it is rather refreshing for a pantomime to be led purely
by the performances of its cast." British Theatre
Guide
"A beautifully-done scene, the highlight was a
“dancing” pumpkin transformed into a coach
led by a pair of real ponies, the aah-factor clearly
winning hands down over The X Factor on Saturday night
in a near-packed-out theatre." The Journal
