“The whole show was amazing from start to finish! The students and teachers were involved and loved joining in with the singing and dancing. The magic of the theatre brought in to school. Highly recommend to anyone who loves a panto!”

“The performers were cheerful and extremely professional. They held 230 children of ages 4-11 completely enthralled and enthusiastically participating in the Aladdin performance for 70 minutes. The adults were all impressed with the script, the songs and the energy with which the actors delivered. We'd love to have West End Theatre come back next year!”

“a good panto with a story familiar to the children. May need to be dumbed down a little for younger age groups (reception) included good adult humour. All the children were enthusiastic and enjoyed what they saw.”

“Aladdin was a Pantomime suitable for all from Nursery to Year 6. The performers who attended our school were fantastic. Our children thoroughly enjoyed the audience participation. The energy and enthusiasm of the actors was infectious. As a school we had a great afternoon laughing together, a real treat!”

“The size and scale of the set was very disappointing. It looked cheap and thrown together at the last minute. The 2 cast members were very enthusiastic and sang/performed well, however they were not loud enough and the backing music was down way too low. The props were too small and looked cheap! Even one of the nursery children looked at the beanstalk and pointed out that it was too small! The way that the audience were sat meant that they could see the actors getting changed behind the two small screens and this was very distracting for the children. It was advertised as suitable for EYFS but most of it was too abstract and went over their heads. The use of Barbie dolls to represent the characters in giant land was disappointing. For the size of the audience the whole production looked very small and cheap. Actually to be blunt very amateur. This was not the all singing all dancing over the top panto experience that was advertised and was certainly not good value for money. As a staff we all felt very disappointed and we will not be booking again.”

“Amazing team, enthusiastic, set really clear expectations and practised with the children what they expected them to do setting high expectations. As a result the children were able to really enjoy the panto and get into the spirit of it. Our KS1 children left the hall shouting "More!" they would have happily stayed all day! Thanks Sally”

“The children, particularly Y2/3 and above, really enjoyed and understood the story and all children enjoyed joining in with the interactive songs etc. For some of our younger ones, an hour was a long time but they stayed sat (when appropriate) and seemed to enjoy it! The actors work very hard and were fab! I only wish we had introduced the songs beforehand as this would have enhanced the show!”

“I am based in the office, but can hear what goes on in the hall and the screams of joy from the children was amazing. You've performed for us for at least 3 years now and I was told by the teachers that this was the best yet!! Thank you so much.”
