Here at Spotlight IOW, we are excited to announce that our brand-new pantomime of Beauty and the Beast will be performed at Shanklin Theatre this holiday season.

It’s a tale as old as time. An arrogant prince is magically transformed into a monster and is told that he must find true love in order to become human again. Unfortunately, he hasn’t heard of match.com and instead kidnaps a girl form the local village. Will she be able to tame the beast? Will he be able to win her heart? Will we manage to shoehorn a scene where a couple of idiots get covered in gunge? Book now and find out this Christmas.

We pride ourselves on producing fast paced, hilarious productions full of current songs, audience participation, special effects, and surprises. With a brand-new script every year our traditional pantomimes are always fresh and bang up to date.

And for those of you who are still not sure if you should book, one of the most common things we hear from people after they see our shows are, ‘I didn’t think I liked pantomimes until I saw yours’, or ‘I was dragged along by my kids to see this, and I’m really glad I was’.

So please join us this winter and enjoy the singing, the dancing, the jokes, the mayhem and the magic of Beauty and the Beast.
