I took my friends boy to his first Edinburgh fringe show for his 3rd birthday and her daughter was 18 months when I took her to a Christmas show for little ones. Both loved it!

I've been going to panto for as long as I remember and my first West End show was Blood Brothers. I was 12 and got so scared of the narrator I cried, was in a right state when the guns went off and vowed to never see another theatre show again.. Thankfully my mum persuaded me to see Fame the next night and I've been hooked ever since!
