Elstree Productions
THE GREAT PANTO
What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon on the 19th of February 2012. than to watch a performance of “Aladdin” Hosted by Elstree Productions Theatre Company at St Teresa’s Church Hall in Borehamwood.I must say it was an amazing performance I witnessed from the cast and the production team. It was well put together and larger then life. As I sat there and watched the show I noticed how the children and the older people in the audience were engulfed with the sing along songs and the great fun that was presented in the good old fashion " Panto style" performed on stage
The crew and cast worked really hard to make this a very entertaining performance, with cheeky one liners and great jokes, magic with a touch of class. Many good songs that really made the story come alive.
I appreciated the way the cast engaged with the audience to bring the children up on the stage to be part of the performance. also encouraging the adults to be part of the show. This was really excellent. If you have have never been to one of their shows, I would highly recommend it.
At £6 pound for adults and £4 for children,It was value for money, as I was totally entertained and thoroughly enjoyed myself as were the rest of the audience who did agree it was most entertaining.
I went with my own child who was overwhelmed with the all songs for audience participation with supreme acting. My 62 year old mum also enjoyed it, as did the rest of the participating audience, a mix of children and adults having an exuberant time as they watched and observed all the action.
Well done to the production team and the cast who also brought to life the characters in their own way. A truly wonderful afternoon. Thanks to all at The Elstree Productions Theatre Company. We don’t want to thank any individual as they were all excellent and I am sure the behind the scenes staff helped to make this show 100% entertainment.
If you want to be part of the next productions then feel free to contact Josie Shingles Tel 020 8953 6560 elstreeproductions@hotmail.com or contact them on face book Under Elstree Productions Theatre Group. Come along learn how to act, sing, and dance and be in the next shows.
