Brilliant stuff, 19 December 2006
10/10
Author: SueHandJackH from United Kingdom

An absolutely brilliant pantomime for the whole family I loved it as did my nephew although he didn't always understand why I was laughing (But we can't explain all of the jokes to a 5 year old) Great stuff and a great performance from Hear'Say, Chris the cat was so funny as well and as was Dick and his singing (when he couldn't). I would definitely recommend this pantomine for people of all ages as it has humor there for the kids as well as the adults and is a guaranteed laugh for all. It will make you laugh so hard that you want to cry and you will find yourself joining the kids and shouting boo at the television, even though you know that you sound silly. Cant wait to see if any more pantomimes are shown by the same person.
