Pantomime Scripts
for Small Casts
Panto scripts with up to nine principal roles, plus supporting parts to involve more of your company.
A smaller cast doesn't have to mean a smaller show. Every script here runs a full two acts with an interval, and keeps everything your audience turns up for: the Dame, the slapstick, the songsheet, the set pieces. Cast sizes are a guide, not a ceiling.
Aladdin Pantomime Script
One of the great panto titles, but with a modern edge. Aladdin has original set pieces and a hilarious Dame who commands the stage. A strong choice for groups who want spectacle, slapstick, and lots of panto silliness.
Beauty and the Beast Pantomime Script
A tale as old as time, this script has an emotional heart and plenty of panto puns. Featuring a beastly transformation, a very funny Dame, and more thought-provoking furniture than IKEA, this script is a beauty!
Hansel and Gretel Pantomime Script
A less frequently produced panto script title, which means your audience arrives without any expectations and is treated to a riotous performance with more biscuit jokes and cake puns than an episode of Bake Off!
Jack and the Beanstalk Pantomime Script
Big, loud, and brilliantly paced; this panto classic takes you up the Beanstalk and back with comedy, catastrophe, and a very clever cow! Classic panto at full throttle, with a giant sense of scale and the comedy to match.
Read the script alongside your casting plan and check which roles could be doubled, and whether those scenes sit too close together for it to work. Some of these make doubling almost invisible to an audience; others need more planning. Smaller principal counts also make rehearsal scheduling easier, which matters when your company is working around jobs, families and the usual chaos of amateur production life. A free Perusal Script costs nothing, and nothing stops you reading a second title if the first doesn't fit your headcount.
