The Story Factory Christmas Pantomime: The Quartercorn, Mr Sinister and the Stolen Fairy Tales

Overview

Maybe you have a bit of a soft spot for a good Christmas Panto. Or maybe you'd like to treat the little people in your family to some fun. Either way, you can head along to the Sydney Story Factory for The Quartercorn, Mr Sinister and the Stolen Fairy Tales, a show written and performed by the children and adult volunteers from the centre.

Directed by Uma Kali Shakti and written by last term's Thursday after-school class, the play follows two schoolkids who, on their first day at a new school, discover all the other students are fairytale characters with a serious case of memory loss. There's a Princess, a villain called Mr Sinister, a magical creature called Quartercorn and NAPLAN testing. There's singing and hopefully a few opportunities to heckle the bad guy and shout out "He’s behind you!" All profits will go towards the creative writing workshops at the factory.

The show is on Thursday and Friday at 6pm, plus Saturday at 2.30pm.
