Sleeping Beauty
A pantomime by Andrew Pollard
Christmas 2017-18
Once upon a time, there lived a Princess, her long-suffering Nanny, her doting Fairy Godmother, and Grumpy King Lenny. On her 18th birthday, the Princess pricks her finger on a spinning wheel and falls deeply asleep. When she wakes up, exactly four hundred years have passed and things have got a whole lot groovier...
From the glorious pageantry of the Tudors to the flower-powered freedom of hte sixties, this is the most spectacular, splendid and stupefyingly funny production of Sleeping Beauty you have ever seen.
"It truly is a very entertaining show, which also boasts the boldest and best panto costumes I have ever seen. There really is something for everyone; in fact, with such inventiveness and genuinely good comic acting, I reckon this could even be the panto for panto-haters." - OX Magazine
"The Chipping Norton Theatre know how to put on a good pantomime and this year’s thigh-slapping, fun-filled production of Sleeping Beauty is no exception" - Cotswold Life
