Join us for the Nottingham Playhouse Christmas pantomime 2010: A crackin’ eggs-trava-gander!

Take a gander at the only panto in Nottingham with the Eggs-Factor this Christmas. Mother Goose is an unbeatable cavalcade of fairytale fun, with eggstraordinary song and dance, eggs-quisite sets and costumes – and eggs-cruciating jokes by the dozen!

Mother Goose hits the jackpot when her feathered friend Priscilla starts laying golden eggs. But it’s not enough for her to feather her own nest. Soon there’s egg on her face as she confronts the dangers of Dame and Fortune…

John Elkington has become a comic legend in his own right over twelve years of Nottingham Playhouse Pantos. Now see him play the mother of all Dames in the 27th fairytale fiesta from pantomime genius Kenneth Alan Taylor. It’s eggs-treme entertainment for all the family!

Play our Mother Goose Golden Egg game – it’s eggs-ellent!

I'm beside myself with excitement, only a week to go boys & girls before the magical extravagander begins! x

Mutley from Goose Land
I went to the first performance last night and it was absolutely fantastic, had both me and my 3 year old daughter in stitches! Will certainly recommend!

Stabbo from Nottingham
Saw the matinee on Saturday 27th November and had a fantastic time!
My 6 yr old loved every minute of it and there was plenty of 'grown up' directed humour to make me laugh outwardly on many occasions!
If you are looking for a panto to go and see this year, then I have no hesitation in recommending this one.

Kirsty from South Wingfield nr Matlock
