Synopsis
In Once Upon a Time in Pantoland, Dame Tallulah Tickle runs the local joke shop with her mischievous children, Tommy and Tilly. But when the wicked witch Mouldywart kidnaps the Spirit of Pantoland, the laughter that once filled the land fades away. Now, not even the Tickles can bring back the joy.

Can the brave PC Pete and his loyal dog Baxter come to the rescue? Will a visit to the wise Fairy Grandmother unlock the key to saving Pantoland? And most importantly, will the citizens of Pantoland ever find their laughter again?

Packed with beloved characters and filled with all the classic pantomime fun, this delightful and original fairytale is a true celebration of pantomime traditions, with a twist of surprise!
