“Oh yes we do...” love pantomime!

If you ask any child in Britain what is the favourite activity that they are looking forward to doing at Christmas time, most of them will say with excitement that this must be seeing a pantomime. Watching pantomime is a very nice British tradition, this is not a normal theatre performance that you got used to, a “panto” will involve a lot of interaction with the audience – expect the snowballs being thrown at you, performing some dance moves and songs or even being called up on stage. Not only kids are anticipating the pantomime but adults are waiting to see one with pleasure too! Here is Short Let London list of the best pantos shown in London this Christmas.

“Beauty and the Beast” is London most central panto, staged in Shaw Theatre that is in Euston, and is a classic fairytale about a girl who needs to live with a beast to save her father. “Cinderella” at Lyric Hammersmith this year takes on the lead as its boss Sean Holmes is directing the show himself, the cast features panto veteran Steven Webb and West End star Julie Atherton in the main role.  Hackney Empire theatre has von a reputation for producing the best and foremost pantos in London and this year Susie McKenna`s “Dick Whittington and His Cat” proves that once again, despite totemic dame Clive Rowe leaving the Empire.

“Aladdin: A Wish to Come True” in The O2 is one with the largest panto in London with capacity of 1900 seats and big star names like Savage, Jon lee (“Jersey Boys” star as Aladdin) and Issy van Randwyck. “Robin Hood – A Pantomime Adventure” is on in Greenwich Theatre, this is a nice children`s tale with a feel-good factor and in the best old fashioned traditions. “The Three Musketeers” at Rosemary Branch Theatre in Old Street, “Mother Goose” in Millfield Theatre, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” at New Wimbledon Theatre or “Jack and the Beanstalk” in Theatre Royal Stratford East are also worth seeing family-friendly shows.
