'Pantomime is a great British family tradition at Christmas especially loved by small children who come with their families, but there are plenty of grown-ups who always make a point to come and see us too. We are happy to say we count among our many fans both the British and Irish ambassadors. Our shows are nearly always based on a popular children’s story such as Cinderella or Snow White, but with a modern twist: lots of songs, topical jokes, fantastical characters, costumes and audience participation - where we invite the children to join in with a song, or to greet the Pantomime Dame with a loud “Hola Guapa” and to “boo the baddy”! The pantomime is in English although we do make the occasional reference in Spanish. Not all our audience are native English speakers, but whether from English, Spanish or any other culture, it is always a joy to see how much small children enjoy themselves at the pantomime and it goes without saying that it is an excellent way to get them to join in with a few simple English phrases and song lyrics.'
