Exeter Little Theatre Company return once again to the Exeter Barnfield Theatre with their 59th annual fun filled family pantomime.

Fed up with the usual sickly-sweet family-friendly festive fare? Oedipuss In Boots is “a fantastically ridiculous, twisted alternative to your traditional Christmas pantomime” (★★★★ The Public Reviews).
After a sold-out run at Bristol’s Wardrobe Theatre in 2012 and a turn at Shambala Festival, Oedipuss In Boots and its all-male cast return with this new mother loving puntomime full of dark, twisted, adult humour, outrageous costumes, hilarious characters and far too much anthropomorphism for its own good. Featuring original music from Kid Carpet.
The title role in Exeter’s own professional pantomime Aladdin, running at Exeter Corn Exchange until 6th January, is taken by sixteen year old Will Trafford in his first professional stage outing.
Given that his father is the writer, producer and director of the show you might say it was inevitable that Will would get a starring role, but there's no denying Will's pedigree, and he had to prove himself before getting the part.
Writing in the Express & Echo, reviewer Anita Merritt said of Will’s performance: “He dazzled during his dance scenes and looks destined...
Actor Daniel Page is loving being on stage at Exeter Corn Exchange and being hissed, booed and generally hated this Christmas, which isn’t the usual thing that professional actors hope for but in this case it’s perfectly normal as he plays Abanazer, the scheming and plotting baddie in Aladdin which runs from 15th December to 6th January.
Daniel has been all over the country as an actor and performer, but his first pantomime took place right here in Exeter. He says:
“I have only done one other professional panto before and that was last Christmas playing Friar Tuck in Robin...
First there was ‘Mirror Mirror’. Then there was ‘Snow White and the Huntsman’. Now there is ‘Snow White –the panto’, coming soon to a stage in Exeter. So if you’ve seen the films, come and watch the show!
For their next production in early January, Pinhoe Pantomime Society will be enacting ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’ to be performed at the America Hall, complete with all the usual trimmings of ‘He’s behind you’, ‘Oh yes I did’, booing, hissing and much more!
This season’s cast includes Susie Wakely in the title role, pursued by Matt Milum as the Prince, and chased by...
