KING'S HEAD THEATRE, UPPER STREET, ISLINGTON ★★★★★ The Stage - "Wickedly inventive"
★★★★★ What's On Stage - "Endlessly Inventive" Click on the publications to read full reviews CCO's legendary 'boutique panto' for Christmas 2015/16 was a stylish, alternative, inventive take on the tale of Snow White. Anyone who has seen any of CCO's 'Boutique Pantos' to date knows to expect the wholly unexpected, a dazzling array of musical numbers, sung by a stunning cast, an unbelievable amount of belly laughs, audience participation, custard pies, baking, a ludicrously tall Dame - and you can bet that there'll be plenty of puns (or should that be cracks?) in the frame... From adults-only performances through to children’s matinees, our Boutique Pantos are perfect for families, couples, groups of friends or office parties, and have become a legendary part of North London’s Christmas, scooping Time Out Top 5 Critic’s Choices, and The Times' Top 10 Christmas Shows in 2014. ★★★★ TIME OUT CRITICS CHOICE 2014 “If there is a better pantomime in London this winter I will eat my critic’s hat” Reviewsgate on Buttons, 2013 |
