Hercules The Panto!
29-31 JANUARY 2026
Join Hercules on a Laugh-Out-Loud Mythical Adventure in This Unmissable Family Pantomime!
Get ready for a side-splitting, heartwarming journey as Hercules, the legendary demigod and son of Zeus, takes centre stage in this action-packed pantomime! When Zeus’s mighty lightning bolt is stolen by the devious Hades, Hercules must brave a series of outrageous challenges to save Mount Olympus from chaos.
Filled with laugh-out-loud training disasters, unexpected twists, and larger-than-life characters, this family-friendly theatre show delivers epic fun and unforgettable entertainment. Along the way, Hercules discovers that real strength lies not just in muscles—but in teamwork, loyalty, and quick thinking.
Perfect for audiences of all ages, this modern twist on Greek mythology promises non-stop laughs, dazzling costumes, and feel-good fun for the whole family.
