Mammy Goose always thought she was going to be somebody, though life hasn't quite worked out like that. Her dreams of glittering Holyrood parties hob-knobbing with the Scottish elite like The Krankies and Sean Batty have gone down the pan. The frying pan. Her life is less Debbie McGhee more McGhee's the Bakers. She's working her fingers to the bone in that wee cafe of hers with her only friend in the world is Lucy - a talking Goose (and you can imagine the stares in street walking arm-in-arm with a 6ft goose).
It's almost panto time at the Tron Theatre and this year we are delighted to announce that our 2018 pantomime MAMMY GOOSE (27 Nov '18 - 6 Jan '19) is once again written by, directed by and starring the undisputed king of panto Johnny McKnight! This year's run also welcomes McCrea Financial Services, one of Scotland's leading independent financial advisers, as our sponsors.
Written by Sam Cassidy, directed by Arlene Phillips, Myth: The Rise and Fall of Orpheus runs until Saturday in concert-style workshop performances at The Other Palace. The production is semi-staged and performed by a live 6-piece rock band.
