This isn’t your ordinary Sleeping Beauty…
Transported to the mysterious Scottish Islands, this wickedly funny panto is packed with spooky surprises, magical mayhem and laugh-out-loud chaos perfect for Halloween!
At the christening of Princess Eilidh, her three fairy godmothers gather to bestow their blessings — until the celebrations are spectacularly interrupted by the wicked Bonjela, the younger twin sister of King Hector. She’s not a demon, devil or dementor… she’s far worse — an evil dentist!
Furious at being denied her rightful place as Queen, Bonjela unleashes a terrifying curse: before her 18th birthday, Princess Eilidh will prick her finger on a needle and die! Can the fairies keep her safe? Or will Bonjela’s chilling spell finally succeed?
Expect larger-than-life characters, outrageous dame antics, toe-tapping songs, dazzling dancing and plenty of ghostly Halloween fun along the way. A frightfully fabulous family panto for all ages!
