The Centre, New Eltham Methodist Church, 435-9 Footscray Road, New Eltham
New Eltham Community Productions invite you to their 2026 Panto Snow White. Once upon a time in a faraway magical Kingdom, the wicked Queen Jean is by far the most beautiful in the land (and the best dressed, assisted by her lady in waiting Lady Blah-Blah). The enchanted mirror declares her to be so (at regular intervals!). However, also living in the Palace is Snow White, just turned eighteen. Finding herself by chance in the Palace Ballroom, the enchanted mirror suddenly declares Snow White to be the fairest in the land. The vain Queen Jean vows to kill Snow White with one bite of a poisoned apple and banishes her to the woods where seven friendly furry friends do their best to protect her. Will the wicked Queen succeed in her evil mission? Can her hopeless henchmen Oh No and Oh Crikey complete the task or will the handsome Prince Lee Sum ride to her rescue in time? All will be revealed in our fabulous New Eltham Methodist Church Pantomime. Fun for all the family, visit the website for more information, don't miss it!
