REVIEW: Snow White Christmas Pantomime at the Wyvern Theatre
We had the pleasure of attending what is a much loved and highly anticipated event in our festive calendar every single year this week - the Christmas pantomime at the Wyvern Theatre!
This year’s pantomime is a family favourite - Snow White - which stars RuPaul Drag Race star Divina De Campo, BGT favourite Paul Burling, Dame David Ashley, TikTok star and Presenter Nathan Connor, Disney and musical theatre actress Samantha Dorrance and lots more fantastic stars to make up an incredible cast.
From start to finish, the pantomime oozed such a fun and festive atmosphere, providing the perfect Christmas evening out for the whole family.
The show told the famous tale of Snow White and the seven dwarfs, and how the wicked Queen Morgiana was sent into a jealous rage when Snow White was declared the fairest in all the land.
The costumes are absolutely fantastic - in particular we absolutely loved the seven dwarves! Paul as the Muddles brought plenty of comedy to the show and mixed with the Evil Queen as the pantomime villain, created a fabulous contrast expressing all the emotions to the captivated audience.
One of our favourite things about a pantomime is the audience involvement and Snow White certainly wasn’t short of this - the cast was absolutely brilliant at getting everybody involved and making the audience feel like part of the show.
Half way through the performance, there was a 20 minute interval which gave the audience chance to use the loo or pick up any refreshments before heading back to the theatre for the second half.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience of the pantomime at the Wyvern Theatre, it could potentially be one of our favourite ones yet and we encourage you bring the family along this Christmas!
Snow White at the Wyvern Theatre runs until 31st December, you can get tickets here.
