Welcome to a long-forgotten, fairy-filled kingdom… a land of crowns, curses… and chaos! The wicked sorceress Carabosse has placed a nasty curse on Princess Beauty: on her 18th birthday our lovely princess will prick her finger on a spinning wheel and maybe even die!

The kingdom is thrown into turmoil and greeting about it won’t help! Only the brave, bold and slightly bonkers Fairy Monty and his magical band of sparkles, laughter and confusion can keep hope alive.

Can they protect Princess Beauty from her fate? 

Will true love — and a very heroic prince — really be enough to break the curse of Carabosse?

Along the way there’s silliness, royal romance, wicked tricks, dazzling songs, and more jeers and hisses than you can shake a giant spindle at!

You’ll cheer the goodies… you’ll boo the baddie… you’ll be shouting, clapping and singing along – just mind and don’t let Carabosse hear you!

Come join us for a magical panto full of giggles, thrills and fairytale spills - because in this kingdom, true love’s kiss conquers all.

EK Repertory Theatre Club presents The Cat’s Meow by Steven Peros.

“Welcome to Hollywood – A land just off the coast of the Planet Earth”

In November 1924, a mysterious Hollywood death occurred aboard The Oneida, media mogul William Randolph Hearst's yacht. Among the famous guests attending that weekend were film star Charlie Chaplin and Hearst’s mistress, starlet Marion Davies.

The Cat's Meow imagines the worst as everyone cavorts through an oceanic orgy of intrigue, seduction, infidelity, blackmail, booze, drugs and murder! A fascinating cross section of Jazz Era characters who intersect for one notorious decadent weekend!

A sharply written, darkly comic morality play. Laced with clandestine romance, steadily growing tensions and Hollywood excess which erupt in a shocking act of violence!

Season Ticket for September, March and June Productions by EK Rep £45/Concession £36 see ek-rep.org.uk for details.

Available to book online or by calling East Kilbride Arts Centre on 01355 261000.

Cost: £16.00 / £13.00 (subject to £1.50 transaction fee)
