Mansfield’s favourite panto star Adam Moss had been keeping himself busy during lockdown, but has decided to write and perform in his own pandemic panto, called ‘The COVID Christmas Panto’ which you can stream straight into your own home this year.

The one-man panto will star Adam in the roles of six different, colourful characters and will feature the usual jokes and interactivity panto fans know and love.

Adam explains: “It all came about when I asked on social media if people would want a one-man panto this year, and here we are.

“It's a brand new script, written by me, with the usual comedy, interaction and something for everyone.

"We don't have the big budget, but we do have me!

"It also features local dance company Sidds Studios from Mansfield who I'll be auditioning in a couple of weeks time – socially-distanced of course.

"I really hope people enjoy it, and it helps make up for the disappointment of not being able to go to the Palace Theatre for everyone’s usual Christmas tradition this year.”

Tickets are £9.99 per household and are available from Eventbrite here.
