Puss in Boots is a traditional family pantomime that reimagines the classic fairy tale with a comedic twist. The story follows the cunning cat, Mr. Toots, who after being give a pair of magical boots, sets out to make his poor master, Cameron, a wealthy man. With plenty of audience participation, original comedy routines, and tongue-twisting wordplay, the show is packed with villains, heroes, and a daft cast of characters. From a messy scene in a watermill to a spooky ghost scene in the princess's bedroom, this panto is a whirlwind of fun and adventure for all ages.
