We’d like to send a shoutout to TaleGate Theatre Productions Ltd for lending us some simply AMAZING costumes for our summer pantomime Pinocchio!

They really helped bring the show together and they simply looked fantastic. In fact some of theses costumes are off touring the country soon in one of TaleGate’s MANY shows and pantomimes this year.

Check them out and see where your nearest show or event is. They do amazing work!
