Bake Off: The Great British Pantomime
MTAO Productions • Semi-professional company
About the show
MTAO Productions return to Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025 with Bake Off: The Great British Pantomime, a musical comedy family show set in the world of a baking competition gone very wrong. A crew of almost-recognisable faces must band together to defeat the world's greatest evil: Ratt Lucas. Armed with the power of friendship and a predictable parody or two, the show delivers puns, buns and tonnes of funs in a 45-minute family-friendly adventure at Forest Theatre, suitable for audiences aged 3 and over.
Why see this show?
A silly, warm-hearted pantomime romp that takes the familiar format of a baking competition and gleefully runs away with it — puns included, parodies welcome, enjoyable for the whole family from age 3 upwards.
