Win tickets to see Andy and Mike's Big Box of Bananas!

Andy and Mike’s … Big Box of Bananas is back on the road this June and we have a family ticket (for 4, max 2 adults) to give away!

In this exciting new theatre show you are invited to Andy and Mike’s ‘fun pad’ – there is room for everyone and once there you can expect music, laughs, wigs, eye-patches, boats, planes, suspense and a BIG BOX OF BANANAS!

BAFTA-nominated CBeebies’ presenter Andy Day brings his much-loved humour to this high-energy, children’s comedy.  He and Mike James, childhood friends and comedy partners, have created a fast-paced show full of slapstick, songs and stories. With imaginative writing and great gags, Andy and Mike’s… Big Box of Bananas is a treat for the whole family.

When a magical and mysterious box appears in Andy and Mike’s ‘fun pad’, try as they might they can’t open it. The boys must journey the skies and seas to try to find the password to the box but they need help – they’ll never manage it without an audience of house sitters to give them a hand!

Join them on a colourful journey taking in some very glamorous, all-singing, all-dancing air stewards, some confused pirates and some amazing musical sea life! You’ll also get to meet Poppy the Pet Porpoise, Andy’s Mum and the mysterious man in the TV to help reveal the mystery of the Big Magical Box.

To be in with a chance of winning a family ticket (for 4) visit Tot Friendly here and answer the following question...

Cinderella at The Hertford Theatre

Full of usual panto humour, sing a longs, and 'it's-behind-you!' moments, Cinderella at the Hertford Theatre is a delight. We went to the Sunday matinee performance with our toddler who, usually quite shy when it comes to getting involved in public, took great pleasure in clapping after every song and jigging his little hips along at any possible moment.

The Hertford Theatre, previously Hertford Castle, has just been transformed following a refurbishment and looks very fitting. The main theatre is a lovely size to enjoy a show or film screening, and the studio more suitable for smaller activities. It was also nice to see that local cafe/coffee house Serendipity have rights to the refreshments and not a chain. All in all a thumbs up for the first professional pantomime and it's newly refurbished surroundings.

Next year’s program of events for Jan - April is already out so be sure to book early for your chosen show or activity as I am sure they will sell out fast...

As always you can also find a great selection of shows for tots on in London and Hertfordshire in the Tot Friendly children's theatre section along with all those at Hertford. Tweet
