Ian McKellen - returning to Chichester for the first time since King Lear in 2017 - and John Bishop join forces to bring you a hilarious family-friendly panto. With Mel Giedroyc also starring as a goose with a gift, Mother Goose is the ultimate theatrical feast - full of fun, farce and surprises.

Meet Mother Goose (McKellen) and her husband Vic (Bishop). Running an Animal Sanctuary for waifs and strays, they live a wholesome life inside an abandoned Debenhams. But when a magical goose (Giedroyc) comes a-knocking, will fame & fortune get the better of them?!

Will Mas feathers get ruffled? Will Pa tell everyone to get stuffed?! And is their humble life about to turn fowl? Get ready for fairies with hefty vocal chords, puppets with tap dance qualifications and impeccably constructed mayhem that will quack up the whole family.

From the imaginations of Jonathan Harvey (Coronation Street, Gimme, Gimme, Gimme) and Cal McCrystal (Britains funniest director Guardian) comes the MOTHER of all pantos. Book your tickets and get ready for take-off!

For ages 6+
