Seven classic pantomimes in eighty hilarious minutes!
Double Olivier nominees Dan and Jeff return for a fifth festive season of Potted Panto, hot on the heels of their world tour of Harry Potter parody Potted Potter.
In a madcap ride through the biggest stories and best-loved characters from the wonderful world of pantomime, our dastardly double act dash from rubbing Aladdin’s lamp to roaming the golden streets of Dick Whittington’s London and making sure that Cinderella gets to the ball. It’s all unmissable fun, whether you’re six or 106.
The press on Potted Panto at Southwark Playhouse:
‘Potted Panto is the most satisfying production. It spreads the panto word with genuine affection, and just enough self-awareness to let outsiders in on the jokes. For them – huzzah.’ The Guardian
★★★★ ‘A celebration of all that is silly and fun about pantomime, something all the family can enjoy and most certainly will!’ The Spy in the Stalls
★★★★ 1/2 ‘Anything and everything a modern panto needs. Is it one for panto lovers and naysayers alike? Oh yes it is (sorry).’ The Reviews Hub
The press on Potted Panto in the West End:
‘So silly it’s just one long joke… featuring a 3D journey to nowhere but tear-inducing laughter.’ The Guardian
‘The hordes of children fall around with delight at the mixture of sarcasm and slapstick.’ The Times
‘A show full of enjoyably terrible jokes, manic costume changes, buckets of poo and a spirit of anarchic goodwill.’ Daily Telegraph
‘A hoot of a show… Huge fun for five years and upwards.’ Evening Standard
‘Deliciously festive fun for all ages… If all pantomime was this enjoyable, they’d have a convert here.’ Whatsonstage
