Book now for Potted Panto, the Olivier Award-nominated festive celebration that squeezes seven classic pantomimes into 80 riotous minutes, as the West End’s longest-running pantomime comes to the East End’s Wilton’s Music Hall this Christmas.

Potted Panto in London

Potted Panto returns to Wilton’s Music Hall for another festive residency after previous sold-out runs. In a madcap ride through the biggest stories and best-loved characters from the wonderful world of pantomime, dastardly double act Dan and Jeff dash from rubbing Aladdin’s lamp to roaming the golden streets of Dick Whittington’s London, all while making sure Cinderella gets to the ball.

It’s unmissable fun, whether you’re six or 106. Written by and starring Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, better known as the comedy double act behind Potted Potter and Potted Pirates, it’s directed and co-written by Richard Hurst.

What to expect

Expect a gloriously silly, fast-paced whirlwind through seven pantomimes at once, told through a bewildering quantity of hats, wigs, accents and quick changes.

Book Potted Panto tickets

Potted Panto plays a strictly limited festive season at Wilton’s Music Hall from 6 December 2026 to 3 January 2027. Early booking is recommended, given the show’s popularity in previous years at this historic East End venue.

Potted Panto is a hilarious mash-up of seven different pantomimes, all thrown together into one riotous 80-minute show.

Dastardly double act Dan and Jeff take audiences on a madcap dash through the biggest stories and best-loved characters from the world of pantomime, rubbing Aladdin’s lamp one moment, roaming the golden streets of Dick Whittington’s London the next. All while making absolutely sure Cinderella gets to the ball, all while bickering over exactly how many classic pantos deserve a place in the show.

Created by Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, part of the celebrated “Potted” franchise that also includes Potted Potter and Potted Pirates, the show first premiered at the West End’s Vaudeville Theatre in 2010, earning an Olivier Award nomination for Best Entertainment.

It has since become a genuine festive institution, delighting audiences with its quick-fire wit, chaotic charm and infectious sense of fun: unmissable, whether you’re six or 106.
