Join the cast as they follow the story of Rapunzel, a spirited young girl stolen away when she was just a babe by the evil witch Gothel. Rapunzel dreams of escape and adventure.

With the help of a charming, if not overly confident prince, his loyal valet Frankie, and a sprinkle of fairy-tale magic. Will Rapunzel finally break free and get to explore the world?

This year’s panto is filled with catchy songs, dazzling choreography, and an abundance of hilarious slapstick moments that will have audiences of all ages in stitches.
