10:00am - 11:30amA twisted take on the stickiest fairy tale we could find.
Hansel and Gretel are siblings who are abandoned in a forest, and due to some rather unfortunate navigation, they fall into the hands of a nasty witch who lives in a gingerbread house. With songs you know and love, hilarious characters, and the silliest of stories, this sugar-laden panto will have you rolling in the aisles!
Who is this show for?
As in past years, the Capitol has performances suitable for both the ‘Naughty’, suitable for a mature audience; and the ‘Nice’, suitable for young audiences and families.
Ok, but what is a Panto?
Pantomime or panto is a holiday theatre tradition of organized chaotic comedy, with slapstick jokes, songs, and dancing. It’s also highly interactive, making it a joyful experience for artists and audiences alike. Pantos are typically based on fairy tales or legends – familiar tales that can be shaped into
new stories for today.
“Pantos are magical – colourful in style, set and language, and just so much fun. Northumberland county takes holiday celebrations seriously, and the panto has become an annual tradition for many folks in the area. We produce an original panto every year, so you’re going to see and hear something new each time.” ~Capitol Artistic Director Rob Kempson.
How long is the show?
Run time is approximately 120 minutes.
