For your round up of the latest shows in London this week!
Celebrating the re-opening of the Hoxton Hall, the venue welcome its first Panto having closed for restoration purposes. A Brother’s Grimm classic, Snow White has gripped the imaginations of children and adults alike for centuries with its ‘good always triumphs over evil’ ethos. With a dose of villainy, a touch of comedy and a sickly sweet romance, Snow White most definitely makes, on paper, for a dramatic night out at the theatre.

It’s nearly the end of the year, and we all know what that means theatrically… cue Pantomime season, a chance for all of the best loved fairytales and Christmas inspired stories to be taken off the top shelf, dusted off, and the magical and outright nonsensical to see the light of day!
