Potted Panto Tickets | Family Shows London | West End

The West End’s longest running pantomime returns due to popular demand this Christmas! This Olivier Award nominated festive celebration brings you seven classic pantomimes in 70 hilarious minutes.

In a madcap ride through the biggest stories and best-loved characters from the wonderful world of pantomime, our dastardly double act dash from rubbing Aladdin’s lamp to roaming the golden streets of Dick Whittington’s London and making sure that Cinderella gets to the Ball.

It’s all unmissable fun, whether you’re six or 106.
