Our trip to the Panto

Undeterred by the rain, which flowed in abundance from the sky, we were determined to have a good time.  Our trip to the theatre began with a trip on two different buses, as the Beck Theatre, although not far away, was tricky to get to. We were delighted once we arrived.

Although the theatre was dark, it was packed full with hundreds of other people who filled the air with an electric atmosphere of anticipation.

The whole show was spectacular. We liked many aspects of the pantomime, including: when they needed us to call out a response, the scary fighting scenes, the amazing costumes, the wonderful music, the great dancing and the radiant lighting. We even enjoyed the part when the audience were doused with water. Of course, another highlight was our interval treat. Ice cream - delicious! 

Overall, it was an amazing trip. For many of us, this was our first time attending the theatre and most definitely won’t be our last!

“This trip was so humorous! I highly recommend a trip to the theatre for everyone.” Preeya, 6EP.

“The afternoon was filled with action and adventure. One of the best days of the year so far!” Noah, 6EP
