Panto Review

Without spoiling the fun, let me say that there are some delectable performances. To tempt you I can only mention some of the thespian delights. Wonderful acting by the two lovely sisters of the junior female lead, who, brings tears to your eyes herself. Her would be suitors are ably played by local business men and Baron and Baroness Hardup are, I believe, straight from the Sound of One Dalmation still showing in the Wet End. The wonderful airy-rodents are ably led by that soviet hamster, rolled out of retirement from that establishment in Torquay. Strong cameo performances come, not surpisingly, from barely disguised stalwarts of the Old Vick; such as the footmen and rodent operatives. I also suspect the fairy godmother to have been poached from the Dibley production (she's still living at Fowey, isn't she ? And with nothing to do now Lenny Harry's done a bunk.) Strong back-stage support and excellent direction and coaching make this an amazing pot-pourri of Cornish entertainment, do not miss it !
