WHAT IS PANTOMIME?
Pantomime is NOT “mime”!
PANTOmime (often called a “panto”) is a type of musical comedy stage production designed for family entertainment.
"One of the best Panto's I've seen outside of the UK. Fun, colourful and lots of that good traditional audience participation."
TORRENT PRODUCTIONS IN THE PRESS
Christopher Hoile, for Stage Door
"I had the privilege of attending Cinderella with three generations of the same family. Looking about me it was impossible to say which of the three generations was having the most fun."
Carly Maga, for The Toronto Star
"Torrent Productions is a small-scale complement to highlight the telltale signs of a traditional British pantomime: a closer connection between the actors and the young audience cheering (or booing) them on, more relevant local jokes and business advertisements, and a mix of current pop songs and more traditional sounds of a holiday family show."
Christopher Hoile, for Stage Door
“ 'Robin Hood' Is a Real Panto and a Real Treat for the Whole Family...One reason for Robin Hood’s success is its very unpretentiousness. Unlike the grandeur of the great expanses of Elgin Theatre, at the Legion you feel like you’re in the town hall of a small village where the resident theatre company has put together a show to entertain the locals."
PAST PRODUCTIONS
Pinocchio-A Merry Magical Pantomime is packed with action and zingers with a couple of magical surprises tossed in for good measure. Come see Pinocchio at Gepetto’s magical toy shop. A fantastic holiday treat for the entire family.
Buttons will do his best to help Cinderella, Cinderella’s stepsisters will get up to no good and get in the way of her happiness, and a villain will make things miserable.
In Robin Hood-A Merry Magical Pantomime we find the evil Sheriff of Nottingham up to no good and Robin Hood and his merry band trying to save the day.
