Hide AdThis year’s show tells the magical story of The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan.
Aboard the Jolly Roger, Captain Hook is doomed forever to do battle with his two big adversaries - Peter Pan, and an ever-hungry, ever-lurking crocodile.
Aptly making an appearance this year is none other than ‘The Nipper,’ Dale Farm’s Choc Pop ice lolly character. Full of quick wit, charm and character, the chocolatey, minty Croc is the life and soul of the party, ready to snap up friends wherever it goes.
Audiences can expect a swashbuckling trip to Neverland like never before with this year’s production spectacularly brought to life from page to stage by a talented cast and creative team. The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan features the traditional Grand Opera House pantomime hallmarks of thrilling song-and-dance, beautiful costumes, dazzling staging and effects and barrel-loads of laughter.

“The pantomime is all about bringing families together to share in magical moments and make memories across generations. As a cooperative owned by local farmers, creating dairy family favourites, family is also at the heart of everything we do as a company. We look forward to seeing audiences of all ages enjoying the magic and family fun together this Christmas season – and of course an ice cream at the interval!”
Welcoming the support of Dale Farm, Ian Wilson, chief executive, Grand Opera House, added: “‘Now in its eighth consecutive pantomime season, we are delighted that Dale Farm is continuing its sponsorship of Northern Ireland’s biggest pantomime. An unmissable part of the Festive Season, the Grand Opera House panto has been entertaining generations of families since the Theatre opened 129 years ago.
“Over 71,000 tickets have already been booked for the six-week run, so if you’re looking for unmissable entertainment for all ages, don’t leave it any longer to snap up the remaining tickets.”
