‘Twas the Panto before Christmas and all through the gaff,
Were feens, shams and beores, all out for a laff.
Not a script was in sight, neither plot nor direction were clear,
The actors were chancing it, an’ playin’ it by ear,
Based on audience suggestions, some bad, some worse,
But at least the cast didn't have to rehearse.

Following last years huge success, ITSA Theatre Company is back in The Half Moon Theatre this December with The Improvised Panto, an alternative to a certain fairy tale on the main stage.

ITSA Theatre Company has gathered some of Cork’s funniest actors and improvisers to present a different pantomime each night, based on audience’s requests. It’s all improvised, so nothing is prepared or scripted. Expect the unexpected, the hilarious and the outrageous as our actors weave their way through classic fairy tales without so much as a trail of breadcrumbs to guide them wherever the audience wants them to go.

It’s a whole new world of panto, and anything is possible. Including spontaneous bouts of singing, dancing, laughing, crying and the telling of outrageous lies. And that’s just from the audience. Don’t worry, the actors will be doing it too. Probably. No rules, no writing, just rollicking bouts of laughter and rib-tickling ridiculousness. Is he in front of you? Is he behind you? Your guess is as good as ours!

Ideal for Christmas and Office Parties. Post-show DJ and packages available on request.

This is Panto as you’ve never seen it before…

WARNING: DEFINITELY NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN. LEAVE THE SMALLIES AT HOME FOR THIS ONE.
