Dame Tallulah Tickle runs the local joke shop in Pantoland with her children Tommy and Tilly.

But when the Spirit of Pantoland gets kidnapped by the nasty witch Mouldywart, not even the Tickles can get the citizens of Pantoland laughing.

Can PC Pete help the Tickles save the day? Will a visit to the Fairy Grandmother give them the answers they seek? Will the characters of Pantoland ever get their happy ever laughter?

This is the ultimate pantomime mash-up with much loved characters, and all your favourite pantomime traditions wrapped up in a completely original fairytale.

The main characters are - Dame Tiffany Tickle played by Steven Andrews; Comedy character Tommy Tickle played by Matthew Irvine; Tilly Tickle - Megan Morrison; Prince Harry - Christopher O’Neill; Mouldywart (baddie) - Kate Agnew and her sidekick Snitch played by Megan Mills; Spirit of Pantomime - Sarah Irvine; King Charming - Idris Morrow and PC Pete - Sam Logan.
