Ever wondered where Pantomime villains go at the end of the story?

They go to Goodie-versity: the institute for reformed baddies, where Headmasters Beast and Belle teach them to be good. This Christmas Eve, the baddie class of 2021 are just one day away from their Gooduation when, DISASTER STRIKES…  Someone has sent Beast to sleep and he won’t wake up! And without Beast, there can be no Gooduation day!

With nearly everyone a suspect, we’re going to need your help to crack this Christmas case! 

The creators of Goldilocks & the Three Musketeers, Sleeping Trees, return with a brand new panto mash-up, full of songs, live music and interaction for all!

So grab your magnifying glass, put on your best detective hat and help Sleeping Trees solve this merry mystery.  

 

Part of our OverCome Season
#OverCome2021

Due to staff shortages caused by individuals having to isolate, we have made the difficult but necessary decision to cancel all post- Christmas performances of Sleeping Beauty and the Beast (27th – 30th December). We want to ensure that BAC remains a safe place for our staff, cast and audience members and so we hope you understand. 

We apologise for any disappointment this will cause, and we appreciate your patience as we assist everyone with their bookings.

All performances up to and including 24th December will still be taking place.

This event takes place in person in our Council Chamber.

If you’ve booked a ticket, you’ll receive an email in advance with helpful information before the performance.
