What are your New Year's resolutions? We can help you achieve your 2026 goals! Here are some examples:

Resolution: "I'm gonna to lose weight and get fit." Scientists have worked out that just 15 minutes of laughter a day could burn around 10 to 40 calories - think what a couple of hours will do. Think of the muscles laughing uses. Who needs a gym membership? Get yourself a workout without leaving your seat.

Solution: Come to our panto!

Resolution: "I'm gonna love myself more in 2026" Fantastic choice. Pamper yourself, take yourself out. Theatre is wonderful self-care. And sometimes as inexpensive as just £8.

Solution: Come to our panto!

Resolution: "I'm going to be a better person in 2026!" We all need this. Love, kindness, doing the right thing. But how do we learn this? D'you know, the story of Cinderella is chock full of different characters showing us how to be the very best (Cinders, of course!) and the very worst (those mean ol' step sisters) and how to be kindhearted (Buttons is your fellow here!) Let theatre educate you.

Solution: Come to our panto!

Resolution: "2025 was a bin fire. I just wanna get through the next year intact." Of course. Get things right, right from the start. You'll need some laughter and decent entertainment. Wonder where you'll get that...?

Solution: Come to our panto!

Resolution: "Oh, I'm not making a resolution this year." That's perfectly fine. No pressure. But what will you do with all that free time you won't be using to focus on your resolution goals? Oh...I know...

Solution: Come to our panto!

I think you get the idea. Happy New Year all!

A handsome prince, a poor, overworked girl, horrid step-siblings, a talking pumpkin, a glass slipper, a royal ball, a fairy godmother. Yes, we’ve been working on the recipe for the perfect panto. Take the above ingredients, mix together and stand back. Well back!
Of course, the perfect recipe also needs a dash of cheering on, a spinkle of “boos”, and a belief in the magical – oh, yes it does! That’s where you come in.
Join us for that most pantomimest of pantomimes, Cinderella, this coming January.

We're just a little bit super-proud of our own Elizabeth Davis who has been awarded The Louise English Trophy For A Person Under 30 Who Has Made An Outstanding Contribution To Their Society.

Elizabeth has literally grown up with Pavilion Players taking to the stage as soon as she was able to. Actor, director, choreographer, writer, our youngest pantomime writer at 16 (submitted at 15!) and in January 2023 announced her newest venture, Pavilion Youth Players. The aim of PYP was to be a more holistic theatre group for young people, covering all aspects of theatre production, so that our youth players are at work both on stage and backstage.

Elizabeth was nominated for the NODA London District earlier in the year and received the awesome news that she'd won at the end of last month.

PYP have just finished their successful run of The Wizard of Oz and are already making their plans for next year's show - after a well-earned summer break that is.

Huge congratulations to Elizabeth on a well-deserved achievement! 🏆
