"an ensemble production that incorporates everything that’s good about pantomimes"
ANNE BROOM, THE STAGE

"This stunning production is a treat for all ages...The eight strong cast all played their roles in true pantomime tradition and got the audience completely involved. Look out too for the great sets and costumes"
SUE KEMP, EXPRESS & ECHO

"A high-energy, colourful production cues a rollicking adventure punctuated with boo-ing and hiss-ing whenever Vanity shows his haughty face."
EMMA PEARCY, HERALD EXPRESS


"Mother Goose ticks all the right boxes for everyone from the very young to grandparents... Ably directed by Rebecca Manson Jones, the company produced a nice warm pre-Christmas glow."
JOHN LYON, MID DEVON GAZETTE

BSL Signed & Audio Described performances Thursday 7 January, 1.30pm & Friday  8 January, 7pm

Good-hearted Mother Goose is tempted by wealth and beauty at the hands of the evil Spirit of Vanity. Can she resist the offer of eternal youth and remain true to her family and friends, especially Priscilla the Goose whose golden eggs have rescued her from losing her home? 

Join us as we follow Mother Goose, Silly Billy, Jack, Jill and a chorus of local children on their hilarious, perilous and ridiculous adventures through pantoland. Enjoy the great music, grand costumes and family-friendly laughs that have made Exeter Northcott’s pantomime such a favourite over the years. With the ever-popular Steve Bennett in the title role, this is a guaranteed treat for the whole family.
