Panto is on!

Mon, 28 Sep 2020

This year's pantomime will go ahead at the Gaiety Theatre - that's despite border restrictions preventing the production company visiting the Island.

UK-based Shone Productions Ltd has a three year contract for the annual occasion.

The production company has confirmed it will use an all-Island cast and it will be directed virtually.

Border restrictions currently mean actors and producers off-Island are unable to enter the Island.

The Manx Government says it has reached an agreement with Shone Productions to extend their contract by one year to include the 2022 festive season.

The changes mean this year's panto will be Sleeping Beauty instead of Snow White.
