'Peter Pan' pantomime: Fun, fantasy

MOSSEL BAY ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - The December holiday is around the corner and many of us can't wait for days of sea, sun and sand.

But even the most avid sun worshipper occasionally looks around for alternative entertainment. So how about a fantastic, fun, frivolous pantomime?

For many years the George Society of Arts has pleased kids and parents alike with a pantomime at the George Arts Theatre over the December holidays and this year is no exception. Peter Pan: The Panto of Epic Adventures in Neverland is certain to bring back the zing when the beach gets boring.

Peter Pan has a wonderful cast of 28 talented children and adults who have grown from inexperience to become confident actors that generate great onstage energy.

The pirates will curl your blood, the fairies will tickle your fancy and Peter Pan and the lost children will carry the story forward with skill and enthusiasm. The panto is directed by Heather Stead, who has a wealth of experience.

The prices are R60 for kids, R80 for members, R90 for pensioners and R120 for adults. Spend some quality family time this Christmas holiday and come see the show.
