- Fantastic opening on Friday night. Great cast, costumes and storyline. The musical tracks were modern and upbeat, with fantastic dancers to compliment Mr Strictly and his moves. Craig’s vocals were impeccable and he definitely took centre stage as the wicked step mother. Fabulously funny and entertaining, just as panto should be. Go and see it and you will not be disappointed
