“Mirror, Mirror on the wall …..

In the kingdom of Fantasia, time is running out – if Queen Lucretia doesn’t find a husband soon, she will lose her eternal youth and beauty. But she’s not worried – she has her sights set on the dashing Prince Valiant and when you’re the “fairest in the land”, how could he possibly resist?

But when the Prince meets Snow White and falls in love, the wicked queen will stop at nothing to get rid of her new rival. Is Snow White doomed? Is Prince Valiant brave enough to rescue his new love and ensure good triumphs over evil? Oh, and just who are those seven small figures lurking in the woods…?

Filled with laughter, suspense and a host of colourful characters, the Byre Panto returns with a fresh take on this classic story that’s guaranteed to keep audiences of all ages spellbound.”
