Hercules the Panto, 21st, 22nd, 28th and 29th January 2005
Fresh from his Twelve Labours, Hercules is set a thirteenth by Venus - to win
the hand of Princess Wanda. The cute Gryphon, too, wishes to befriend the
prickly Princess as, anxious to fly, he will be awarded his wings if he
completes his task. Wanda is kidnapped by the evil Cyclops and our hero sets out
to find her, aided by his sidekick Narcissus (who would really rather help
Auntie Medusa in her Royal Heir Salon) watched over by the mischievous Three
Fates, who control everyone's destiny. A happy ending is ensured with Hercules
winning his Princess, Medusa getting her hands on the King and the Gryphon
gaining his wings.
