City Theatre are all set to start the show for their first ever adult panto, The Scouse Genie, taking place this coming week from Tuesday the 28th of November until and on Saturday the 2nd of December.


Although this will be their first ever adult panto, this will be the third panto that City Theatre have put on, including a number of plays and musicals to add to their repertoire. They work with local talent from across all boroughs of the Liverpool City Region, from Sefton and Knowsley to The Wirral.


You can purchase your tickets to this local independent production through the Hope Street Theatre Box Office.


What's The Panto About?

Based on a famous tale, The Scouse Genie tells the story of Aria, a local Scouse girl who lives with her mum, Liver Bird, and her brother and sister, Timothy & Stacey.


After a night out Aria meets a sinister character called 'Bad Ass' Scarr Quinn, who claims to be her long lost uncle. However, his motives for seeking out Aria may not be all that they seem.


What makes this panto different is the new characters that the audience are introduced to, including Prince Jay and Princess Cara. As well as their step mother 'The Empress' Sapphire, alongside her high energy personal assistant Troy.


Another new character that you will meet is the lazy, unambitious but larger than life girl called Haribo. A slave of Scarr Quinn, Haribo quickly becomes best friends with Aria.


What adventure do these two go on? Do they find the magical lamp? And will the Liver Bird frighten all the men in the audience? City Theatre certainly hope so!
