Brentford's only award-winning community theatre group is preparing to bring festive cheer to local audiences once again with its annual pantomime, Camelot, this December.
Presented by St Faith's Players, the production is inspired by the legendary tales of King Arthur and features a script by renowned pantomime writer Ben Crocker. Audiences can expect all the ingredients of a traditional family pantomime, including lively music, colourful characters, comedy, audience participation and plenty of magical mayhem.
The show follows Merlin, Arthur, Guinevere, the wicked fairy Morgan Le Fay and the Knights of the Round Table as they embark on a comic adventure filled with fun, mischief and larger-than-life characters. Organisers promise an entertaining experience suitable for all ages, with the customary pantomime spirit of laughter and audience interaction.
Performances will take place at Isleworth and Syon School, Ridgeway Road, Isleworth, from Thursday 3 December to Saturday 5 December. Evening performances begin at 7.30pm, with an additional Saturday matinee at 2.30pm. Doors open 45 minutes before each show.
The venue offers free parking, wheelchair access and a licensed bar, making it an accessible and convenient option for families and theatre-goers across the area.
Tickets cost £15, including booking fees, with a 10% discount available for groups of 10 or more.
A spokesperson for St Faith's Players said: "Join King Arthur, the Knights of the Round Table and a host of hilarious characters on a spectacular adventure filled with fun, mischief and pantomime magic. Perfect family entertainment for all ages – oh yes it is!"
Tickets are available through TicketSource.
