The Trots are so poor they don’t have a bean to their name, and to make matters worse, the greedy giant Glaikitguts is terrorising the village! Will they really have to sell Buttercup the cow just to survive? Packed with Clydeside chaos and side-splitting fun, this show will leave everyone aged 4 to 104 feeling full of beans!

Led by Andrew Agnew, James McAnerney, Craig McDougall, and Ali Cleland, this enchanting tale is perfect for audiences of all ages.

Wake up and book your tickets now for the most spellbinding pantomime in East Ayrshire this festive season!
Eden Court, Inverness – Snow White
For the ‘fairest panto of them all’ join Highland favourites Steven Wren, Ross Allan and Nikki Auld for a wickedly good time in this much-loved classic tale. When the Wicked Queen’s magic mirror declares that Snow White is the fairest in the land, she is overcome with jealousy. Will Snow White’s friends be able to help save her from the Queen’s fury, letting them all live happily after? Come along for a dazzling adventure packed with magic, mischief, and ‘happily ever afters’ for the whole family!
Kirkcaldy – Adam Smith Theatre
