    Snow White at the London Palladium has s very good cast, normally Orchard at Dartford is good as well.

    In a recent survey, 6 out of 7 dwarves weren't Happy
    No way,, I thought only one of them was Grumpy.
    @Clb74 is too tall, surely?

    For those that were thinking of going, the Palladium have released dates/line up for this years show. It's Goldilocks and the 3 Bears this time. Pretty much the same line up as last year with Paul O'Grady replacing Dawn French. We've booked for Christmas Eve, hopefully Julian Clary will be as outrageous as last year.

    Went for the first time last year and it was superb. We've been to local ones that have been great but this was a big step up.

    been to Dartford the last couple of years and really good fun, kids love it, but enough 'adult' content to make it funny

    We booked both Dartford (with the grandkids) pre Christmas and the London a Palladium in early January on our own, the wife really enjoys them and I must admit I do as well. Surprised that the London Palladium was getting filled up on a Sunday throughout the run, didn’t look at other days.

    Have booked Goldilocks & The 3 Bears at the Palladium on Christmas Eve. Will also book for Snow White at the Bob Hope in the new year.

    I took my daughter to Butlins last week and they put on a production of Sleeping Beauty which was really good.

    Used to do the Butlins pre christmas 4/5 nights before the kids were school aged and they always put on a decent show for the price

    Good afternoon all, Random question I know but does anyone reccomend any good pantomimes they go and see? Anyone know if dartford or Bromley are any good?? I have heard very good things about Greenwich theatre panto every year. Thanks!!
    Seen this thread for the first time, has The Valley ever been an answer on here?
    I can tell you Elf's that the day me and the lad went to Hull and we lost 6-0, I thought Johnson and the on loan Williams were the ugly Sisters and our keeper was Cinderella because he was late for the ball.

    A cracking day out, but will go down as a very low point in our history.

    Saw Goldilocks & The Three Bears at The Palladium tonight. Have not laughed so much for ages. Julian Clary and Paul O’Grady were good but others in the cast were better. Nigel Havers a good sport for wearing a bear suit and funny. Paul the ventriloquist with his puppet Sam were hilarious, there was a motorcycle act that were amazing and Gary Wilmot was great.

    I’m amazed though that people take their kids, it’s very expensive and the jokes and innuendos should be going way over their heads.

    Already looking forward to going next year.

    Yeah they are usually close to the edge with all the innuendos but as you say it goes over the kids heads

    My daughter was getting a bit annoyed when we went last year as I was laughing like a drain. She knew the jokes were aimed at adults, which made it worse as she couldn’t understand them. 

    Can’t wait see it on Christmas Eve, then take her to Hamleys afterwards. 

    Need to make to most of the magic of Christmas with her while we can, this is the first year that she knows Santa doesn’t exist. I think I was more gutted she knows that she was.

    Well worth going to, although performances don’t start until Jan 3rd this (next) year. Always like going in between Christmas and New year.
