Everyone loves a pantomime!
The action is filled with all the elements required for a murder mystery, with a lot of comedy thrown in. We have a deserted mansion, on an isolated island, in a storm, where a group of suspicious characters are meeting for the midnight reading of a will!
Ben Crocker’s Puss In Boots is a tale loved by all ages, and Director Robert Andrews has lead a fine cast of Tea Tree Players regulars and newcomers, all clearly enjoying the audience participation and mischief of a Pantomime
If you take a great Chapman & Cooney script and give it a good director who understands comedy, you will have an almost certain hit!
This reviewer has often said that the Tea Tree Players know their audience and give them what they want. But with Rob Urbinati’s Death By Design, the company is definitely stretching their audience’s boundaries.

It’s that time of year again when annual pantomimes are staged and the Tea Tree Players' version of Cinderella is just the ticket to get you into the Christmas spirit.
