Pantomime 2023
Pantomimes for Schools
Pantomimes for Schools
"Theatre not only entertains and enchants the audience, it fires the imagination, giving children the skills, curiosity and creativity they need to understand the complex world we live in" - Alice Barraclough, The Telegraph
Here at Odd Socks we believe that Theatre should be accessible for everyone. Theatre, for children is incredibly important for their well being and development. This is why we created a Pantomime suitable to tour into schools, whether that school be big or small. We believe in bringing the theatre to you, in your school. Giving the children and staff a personal, professional and ultimately a fun Pantomime experience in familiar surroundings. Another benefit we are increasingly seeing is that it also saves a considerable
amount of money compared to Theatre tickets and travel costs.
After the success of our last four tours, we are pleased to announce we'll be touring
two brand new Pantomimes in 2023! Watch this space for more information.
We offer a self- contained, professional and affordable show, written and directed by the company director who has over 15 years of performance experience. The pantomime is a traditional show with a modern twist, packed with fun and adventure. We use top-quality set, costumes and props to bring this fantastic show to life. Our script has been carefully written by us and features a great musical score using all the latest chart hits which children love! We ensure our shows are suitable for all ages, are topical and relevant. The running time of our show is 90 minutes plus an optional interval. We can adjust the length of our show if this is needed to accommodate certain audiences. We are fully insured, and all our equipment is PAT tested. All company members have full DBS certificates which we are happy to provide. Don’t worry about the space, our set is fully adaptable and will fit into most school halls.
Our pantomimes start from £800 for a single performance and £1200 for a double show day. For all of our double shows we offer a meet and greet with the children , this includes having lunch with them as our pantomime characters. This has always been incredibly successful in the past and brings magic to their pantomime experience.
We work with a number of academies and can give a discount if a number of pantomimes are booked. We also offer a discounted rate if another school within a 5 mile radius books for the same date (A single show) or the day before/after (Double shows). Please do not hesitate to contact us regarding all of our prices and discounts - we will try and give you the best possible price to suit your budget.
Our 2023 diaries are now open for November/December and are filling up fast.

"Odd socks have provided festive pantomimes throughout December for our Childrens charity. All of the shows have been extremely well received by our families. The panto crew were so friendly and adaptable (not to mention extremely talented and hilarious on and off stage). Odd Socks are an absolute pleasure to work with and to watch. I would highly recommend them"
