In Viking Ha! you’ll find all the traditional pantomime silliness, slapstick, and fun; heart warming moments, groan-worthy puns. singing and dancing to music you’ll recognise, plus some new catchy tunes. You also get the opportunity to shout and sing along. Best of all there’s VIKINGS & DRAGONS!
Release your inner Viking. Release your inner Dragon. Release your laughter. Come and have some fun – you deserve it.
