"this must be one of BTC's finest
pantomimes " ...
John Grisbrooke,
Hertfordshire Mercury
Some pictures from the show...
... "how did the
whole performance add up to
so much more than the sum of its parts?"
...
... "The audience must
have left the Civic Centre in a buzz of excitement,
without fully realising how that had come about."
...
... "in the
role of Dame, Tommy Lawford is a past master.
His programme
credits talk of his 30th pantomime and he gets
better by the year ...an immaculate
orchestrator of audience participation" ...
... "it can only be in panto that success is measured in
hiss decibels and this
trio hit the top grade" ...
... "imaginative, multi-coloured luminous puppetry sequence of seabed and marine life" ...
... "the costermonger dance routine
by the Jason Kids
was simply delightful"
...
... "the overall and abiding impression was one of colour and
refinement,
imaginative sets, quality chorus work and an
ever-present abundance of joy
and pleasure ...
... "The sum of the parts was sheer vivacity."
