Potted Panto, the show that promises “seven pantomimes in just 80 minutes”, is returning to the West End for its third season this Christmas.

Starring CBBC’s Dan and Jeff, the Olivier Award-nominated show will run at the Vaudeville Theatre from 8 December 2013 to 5 January 2014.

Pantos featured include Cinderella in 3D, “full-scale” versions of Snow White and Sleeping Beauty, the “first-ever Fairy Godchicken”, a princess face-off and two men attempting to play seven dwarves and all other characters between them.

Potted Panto was first seen at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2010, before going on to play two consecutive West End seasons. It’s co-written and directed by Richard Hurst, who also collaborated with Dan and Jeff on Potted Potter and Potted Pirates.

It will play daytime slots at the Vaudville, varying between 12pm and 4pm. The press performance is on 11 December at 1.30pm.
