Final Night.

That’s it. Last chance. Last curtain. Last bit of panto chaos.

If you’ve been meaning to come and see Snow White, this is your moment. No more “we’ll come tomorrow”, unless you’re volunteering to help de-rig.

Join us at St Stephen’s Primary School for one final evening of laughs, mischief, magic, and all the glorious madness you’ve come to expect.

Tickets available on the door.

Snacks, programmes, raffle, and a theatre full of fun waiting for you!

Well… this rain isn’t exactly being subtle tonight.

If you’re already out in this rain, you might as well make the trip worthwhile.

Come on down to St Stephen’s Primary School and join us for Snow White. Dry off, warm up, and enjoy a proper night of laughs, mischief, and glorious panto madness.

Tickets available on the door.

Grab a snack, pick up a programme, try your luck on the raffle, settle in, and let us entertain you.

What an absolutely incredible Opening Night.

Thank you to everyone who came to watch Snow White. The energy, the laughter, the reactions, it all made the night genuinely special. There is nothing quite like a first audience, and you were amazing.

To our supporters, friends, family, and loyal Atkinson Am Dram crowd, thank you for filling the theatre and making the show come alive.

We’re still buzzing, still smiling, and already excited to do it all again. 🎭

Only TWO HOURS to go…

The stage is set, the costumes are sparkling, the dwarfs are (mostly) under control, and the Wicked Queen is absolutely up to no good.

After weeks of rehearsals, last minute fixes, and just a tiny bit of backstage panic, Snow White is finally ready to burst onto the stage.

Expect laughs, mischief, magic, and all the glorious panto chaos you could wish for.

If you’re joining us tonight, get ready… it’s going to be a good one.

See you very soon 🎭
