About the show
MTAO Productions presents A Traitors Pantomime at the Lower Theatre, a family-friendly musical comedy from a semi-professional company. Follow a new traitors series with all the melodrama and panto pizzazz, guided by Dame Claudia and her fringe through the twists and turns of each roundtable. There's a devious trio of traitors, a comical set of faithfuls, a Romeo-and-Juliet love story, and an ABBA reference thrown in. The show runs for 45 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 5 and over.
Why see this show?
Panto energy meets reality TV drama in this cheerful family show. A Traitors Pantomime is audience participation fun for all ages, with enough deviousness and silliness to keep everyone guessing.
