A Christmas Carol: The Panto

The Family Musical with a Scrooge Loose!

November 6 to November 23, 2024

By Caroline Smith

What the Dickens!?

You may know the story, but you’ve never seen it like this!  Join the fun as the classic story is reimagined with all the hilarious and beloved antics of an old-fashioned panto: villains, heroes, a dame, incredible music, lively dancing, audience participation, and of course, a dash of theatrical magic. 

When the curmudgeonly Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve, he embarks on a life-changing adventure to learn the error of his ways, restore his spirit, and embrace the season. 

Just like past hits Wizard of Oz and Peter Pan, this fractured panto adaptation of one of the greatest tales ever told is a must-see holiday spectacular packed with family fun.

Bah humbug!

Recommended for ages 5 and up.

Running Time: 1 hour and 56 minutes, including a 20 minute intermission

One of the best things things I have seen in kings wharf! The music, dancing, humour, laughs and costumes were amazing. Such a fun panto. Very professional, no mistakes, and looks like all the performers were having fun. Thankyou. Will certainly be there again next year.
