Panto season is coming and this year’s CBeebies Panto taking place in Llandudno, Wales in a special, star-laden performance of Robin Hood at Venue Cymru.
This special adaptation of Robin Hood will take to the stage at this year’s annual CBeebies Panto.
The panto will be sprinkled with festive music and a star-studded cast of CBeebies presenters and on-screen talent, including Rhys Stephenson, Justin Fletcher, George Webster and Maddie Moate.
This adaptation of the traditional story will see Robin Hood and his Merry Band protecting Sherwood Forest and its animal inhabitants from the Sheriff of Nottingham, who has a very naughty plan to destroy the wood of its riches for her own benefit.
Full of catchy songs, dancing, and pantomime fun for all the family, CBeebies Robin Hood promises to, once again, be the must-see Christmas event for pre-schoolers and their families! Remember to wear your Christmas jumpers!
