 | Ah Hackney Panto as always delivers the very best - this years one totally exceeded my expectations! amazing musical numbers (Skyfall absolutely stole the show!) and fabulous costumes - Shirley Sea Bass (!!!) and the Rat Gang (top hat with rat ears?!? i'll have one any day!) really a true joy to watch - put me straight into the Christmas Spirit! - SE panto fan | 10 Dec 12 |
| Hackney Panto at The Empire still "the very best London panto" people must stop harping back to the days of Sharon D and Clive R..yes they were fab but new people lead from the front and blaze. Loved the Welsh Dame this year, perfect in every way and stopping the show with two numbers. Skyfall is a moment of sheer joy! All the hard work from Dick, King Rat and the wonderful Fairy from Rina pays off big time. Only Alexia is good but seems miscast and her two outfits cut up to the top of her legs are a disgrace and so do not fit panto and our wish to be the girl for our country leading lad Dick.. - firstnight eastender | 10 Dec 12 |
