Christmas is coming to the Norwich Theatre Royal with three fabulous shows and I’ve got tickets to one of them to giveaway. The three shows will alternate and play in repertoire starting from Wednesday 16th to Thursday 24th December and they are – Panto in a Pickle!, A Circus Carol and She Go Does It Under the Christmas Tree…with Friends.

Panto in a Pickle!

16-24 Dec| £10 to £13.50 & Family Ticket (x4) £50

There has been a terrible mess-up in Panto-land.  What is Cinderella doing with those magic beans?  Why did Captain Hook stop Snow White going to the ball?  How did Aladdin end up in an enchanted sleep? All of your favourite Panto characters need your help to get them back to their correct stories as this really is a Panto in a Pickle!

A Circus Carol

16-23 Dec| £10 to £17.50 & Family Ticket (x4) £65

Charles Dickens’ timeless classic Christmas Carol is literally turned on its head in this spectacular production filled with gasps, thrills and laughs. Combining acrobatics and truly amazing trickery with ghosts of Christmas past, present and future, this marvellously intricate reimagining captures all the thrills and spills of the original festival tale with even more spectacle.

She Go Does It Under the Christmas Tree…with Friends

16-23 Dec, various times | £10 to £21.50

Don’t miss this brand new show from much-loved Norfolk comedian Karl Minns, with the return of one of his favourite Nimmo Twins comedy creations, She Go, alongside some other local characters.  She Go Does It Under the Christmas Tree…with Friends will be a festive look back at what a year 2020 has been here in our fair county of Norfolk.

All performances will be conducted in strict adherence with social distancing rules and latest Government guidance, with seating within the Theatre Royal auditorium being specially adapted to accommodate a socially-distanced audience and shows running from 60-90 minutes without an interval.  Carefully designed COVID-secure queuing systems will be in place across the Theatre Royal building to guide audiences to their seats in a safe, convenient and comfortable way.

I don’t know about you but I think we could all do with something to look forward to and for me this is it, I can’t wait to see A Circus Carol, it sounds great with all the acrobatics. I know with lockdown 2 now about to start it’s hard to believe anything will go ahead and to look forward to things, there’s a general feeling of despondency, trust me I feel it, I’m still waiting to find out what will happen with my job. So for me it’s vital to have something festive in my future and I just have to believe things will go ahead. Especially as I know the Theatre Royal have gone to so much effort to make these shows COVID secure and have promised those purchasing tickets that they will be looked after.

So, with that in mind, I’d like for one of my readers to have something to look forward to as well. I’ve got a family ticket (4 people) for A Circus Carol on Wednesday 16th December at 7pm, for your chance to win please enter your details into the Gleam app below.
