And if you need anything else to whet your appetite take a read of the show’s write-up: “Join Dotty her wee dug Toto and bonkers Aunty Sandra as they embark on an unexpected journey from Maryhill to the land of Oz - via the yellow brick road of course!
“Joining them are the brainless Scarecrow and Tinny - the heartless Tin Wummin.
“With the help of ‘Goodie two shoes’ Glinda, can they defeat the crabbit auld Wicked Witch of the West and reach the Wizard in the Emerald City?
“Halo Arts 2024 panto is back with the usual big laughs, big characters and tiny budget; promising something for everyone!”
Halo Arts says its panto is the cornerstone of its commitment to providing accessible community projects across Glasgow.
As with every year, our primary aim is to make panto accessible to all - not just those who can afford to pay over £30 a ticket in the city centre. - Brendon McIlroy
The annual show aims to remove financial barriers, ensuring that the joy and magic of panto can be enjoyed by all, according to the company.
The writer & producer of The Wizard of Oz is Brendon McIlroy, the founder and Artistic Director of Halo Arts. The show is being directed once again by Stephanie Falls.
Brendon said: “We are super excited at the prospect of our sixth annual panto getting on the road in November.
“As with every year, our primary aim is to make panto accessible to all - not just those who can afford to pay over £30 a ticket in the city centre.
