Only a few sleeps till "Camelot Pantomime" starts - Get Tickets Now!

Jill from Richmond

When: 7 pm Wednesday 30 November to Saturday 3 December 2022 (with an additional show 2 pm matinee on Saturday)

Where: Theatre Royal, Nelson
Book: Online at www.theatreroyalnelson.co.nz....


Nelson Repertory Theatre presents Camelot The Panto, the story of the love between Princess Guinevere and the handsome Prince Arthur.

The romance appears doomed to failure when the Princess is kidnapped at the wedding by the evil Morgan Le Fay and her followers Valerin the Vicious and his Mum, together with Knight Marlon and Garlon the invisible knight.

But the evil kidnappers did not reckon with the determination of Nurse Connie Clatterbottom and her friends Laughalot and a dancing bear called Teddy, as well as the returning powers of Merlin.

This is a pantomime to be enjoyed by all ages with lots of laughs, wonderful songs and plenty of magic.
