One of the nicer things about Christmas is the traditional annual Christmas Pantomime (Oh no, it's not!) The young lad in trouble; the evil villain; the Dame; the beautiful Princess, the two eager but inept helpers called 'Topsy and Turvy', 'Bubble and Squeak' or 'Trouble and Strife' or something similar.



The singing, dancing, Dad jokes, love triumphing at the end and the general air of innocent merriment make pantomime enjoyable for all ages, as well as those remarks, usually by the Dame, that have only the older members of the audience laughing.

Ellenbrook Theatre Company have, in their short career as an up and coming theatre company, produced a few pantomimes and this year they are throwing their weight behind Puss In Boots.



The plot is simple, having been written by Limelight Scripts rather than Harold Pinter (although there's a production I wouldn't mind seeing - The Birthday Panto). "Tom returns home to discover that he has inherited the princely sum of one golden Guinea and a mill cat. But little does Tom know that this is no ordinary cat, but rather the means by which he can redeem his family's true inheritance. Meanwhile, Dame Doris Dolittle is horrified to discover that the local mill has closed and she can't get her usual supplies of flour ...." and so on.



Panto is lashings of fun for the whole family so make sure a visit to one is on your Christmas List.

Puss in Boots runs from the 20th December to the 23rd, with matinees on the 20th and 21st. Tickets cost $18 for adults, children and concession $12 and a family booking (two adults, two children) $45.

Tickets are available from the TryBooking website .

Caution - may contain laughter and fun.
