Weans in the Wood is supported locally by Ian Gallacher Jewellers.
Hans is failing badly at Magic Merlina’s School for Magical Minors.
Headmistress Merlina and best pal Gretel have tried everything but it looks like there’s mair chance of Hans appearing in the Love Island Class of ’26 than passing those Nat 5’s. And just when the magic community thinks things can't get worse – shock horror – feral forest fooligan and pure thieving radge Little Red Riding Hood robs the school of all their power, leaving the wicked Sheriff of Nottingham to run amok with their band of evil minions.
Can Hans and Gretel stop the pantosphere turning into a deep well of despairing misery and agony (like waiting in the Primark queue on a Saturday afternoon)?
Can Red Riding Hood restore power back to Stirling Stella?
Will Merlina catch the eye of any hot single uncles in the audience and get their happy ever after?
There’s only one way to find out my wee Chookies… grab your magic wands, dancing shoes and full-on-sing-along voices for this year’s panto extravaganza…
