LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD All is not well in the village of Much Twittering-by-the-Sea. Not only has the tide gone out leaving the villagers high and dry and with a five-mile hike if they fancy a paddle, but the Big Bad Wolf is on the prowl – and he’s hungry!
Will Prince Rupert the Rueful be the man to save Red Riding Hood, her Granny and all their friends from his clutches, or is he just a big girl’s blouse?
Find out in this action-packed pantomime script re-telling the traditional fairy tale which has roles for eleven principal characters plus a chorus of adults and juveniles, the latter providing the “ahh!” factor as a flock of cute little lambs - and even a panto cow!

DICK WHITTINGTON It takes a gullible soul to set off for London in the belief that the streets are paved with gold
– but then young Dick Whittington is the first to admit that he’s always been a bit of a cock-eyed
optimist. And undeterred at finding they’re really paved with stone, and very hard stone at that,
he sets about making the best of a bad job. Based, however loosely, on the true story of the real
Richard Whittington who DID become Lord Mayor of London, Dick Whittington is one of Britain’s most
enduringly popular pantomimes. This pantomime script is an action-packed show with all the traditional
characters, and plenty of scope for the effects department to go to town! And it’s even got the
bean soup joke!Read more here! Sample this script Top

JACK AND THE BEANSTALK
The happy-go-lucky inhabitants of the sleepy
village of Little Snoring in the Meadow are a merry bunch with nothing to
trouble them - except the occasional
intrusion by a stomping great brute of a giant! But now they’ve got a royal
visit to prepare for and only young Jack Durden, a lad with a thirst for
adventure, couldn’t care less whether he meets the princess or not. This tale,
with its green-fingered slant, follows the fortunes of Jack, his mum Dolly
and all their friends, including Buttercup, an amazing creature who
single-handedly supplies the entire output of Durden’s Dairy. In panto-land,
evil always gets its come-uppance and the moral of this pantomime re-telling of Jack and
the Beanstalk is: you CAN get the better of the bad guys, even if you’re just a
little weed. Read more here! Sample this script Top

CINDERELLA
There really is nothing like a dame – unless it’s another!
And this popular pantomime script comes with an embarrassment of riches. Not only is there
a double helping of dames with the famous gruesome-twosome of poor, put-upon
Cinderella’s Ugly Sisters, but the principal boys come in plural too! The
line-up of fifteen principals in this version includes other traditional
characters such as Buttons, the Broker’s Men and a wonderful Fairy Godmother,
along with some extras – who could resist, for example, a pair of enchanting
white mice called Bubble and Squeak?
Panto doesn’t come much more trad than this most famous rags-to-riches tale of them all, and with the opportunity for adding spectacle galore to the feel-good factor, everyone’s set to have a real ball with this show. Read more here! Sample this script Top |

KING ARTHUR - THE PANTO
Camelot, in its golden age, during the later years of
Arthur’s reign: the great battles are over, and Arthur’s kingdom is at peace.
Everyone is settling down to happily-ever-aftering. But the glory is getting a
little faded at the edges, with Arthur and his crumbling castle in need of a
good PR job. And, frankly, everyone’s getting a little bored. What they all
need is a good quest or two. Based VERY loosely on the Arthurian tale of Gawain
and the Green Knight, King Arthur – this Pantomime script gives scope for a bit of role
reversal, with the traditional Demon King part a female character. And instead
of the usual Good Fairy, or force for good, we have Merlin, the most famous
magician of all Read more here! Sample this script Top

PUSS IN BOOTS
It is a truth universally acknowledged that, however much we
may like to think we have the upper hand, it’s always the clever cat that’s in

mentor, Old Moggs, pit their wits against their great adversary, the evil Miss
Whiskers, and guide the human characters through an adventure-packed script.
Will Puss succeed in his mission to help young Master Merryweather, the
miller’s son, gain his inheritance and true birthright – as well as win the
hand of the Princess he’s fallen in love with along the way? Just where do
those rabbits come into the panto? And what is the mystery behind that
heart-shaped birthmark? Find out with the Antzpantz pantomime script of the ever popular
tale of Puss in Boots.Read more here! Sample this script Top

![]() | ALADDIN Everything may be up
to date in Peking City, but at Widow Twankey’s Laundry there’s not a mod-con in sight! And with Wishee Washee in charge of
the washtub it’s no wonder the Royal laundry’s in a muddle! Good job there’s a Genie-us on hand to sort things out as Aladdin
– as cheeky a young scamp as ever set foot in a pantomime - pits his wits against his wicked “uncle” Abanazar. With its
ever-popular rags to riches theme, this heart-warming tale of the poor but honest and quick-witted Chinese lad with the heart
of gold and the magic lamp boasts a setting that’s full of Eastern promise plus lots of laughs with a host of traditional
characters and remains one of the most popular pantos of all time.Read more here! Sample this script Top |
