Beauty and the Big Beast: Adult Panto

In case you aren't quite done with the joys of Christmas, the not-so-traditional adult pants returns to the Stamford Corn Exchange this weekend, Saturday 13 January - just a short drive from Rutland.

Celebrating 20 years on the road, the Market Theatre Company are here to corrupt another classic fairy tale beyond recognition.

Can the fearless company of just three actors hold it all together and pull off their very own adult version of Beauty and the Beast using a minimum of set props and costume?

Get ready for another evening of slick, fast-moving, farcical fun and bawdy sexual innuendo for adults only - not suitable for those under 16.

The show starts at 7:30pm and tickets cost £19.
