★★★★ “Liam Rudden’s fine production… knows what many flashier pantos have forgotten; that if you focus on the story, get the timing right, deploy a few good local jokes and all the best panto devices, and believe just enough in the magic of it all, then you can create a good panto from the simplest of ingredients… one of the least pretentious and most enjoyable pantos of the year.” – The Scotsman

★★★★ “Gags aplenty make up much of the script, from puns on princes to frolics on finance as the  troupe warm up this year’s panto season in exotic style and class.” – TV Bomb
