Panto Scripts That Play Bigger Than They Look
A smaller cast doesn't have to mean a smaller show. Every script here runs a full two acts with an interval, typically around two hours of playing time, and keeps everything your audience turns up for: the Dame, the slapstick, the songsheet, the set pieces. Your Performance Licence covers minor changes, so doubling and cameo roles are yours to arrange. Cast sizes are a guide, not a ceiling.
Small Cast Pantomime Scripts
Aladdin Pantomime Script
Nine principals, and it still plays like a much bigger show. Two genies, a market square, a magical cave and a Dame running her own launderette, none of which needs a large company to pull off.
Beauty and the Beast Pantomime Script
Seven principals, the fewest on this page, and an enchanted household of furniture turns your Ensemble into named characters with scenes of their own.
Hansel and Gretel Pantomime Script
Eight principals cover a full rescue mission through the forest, so nobody is standing about. Dame Kitty Kipling's baking carries the comedy, and the town celebration scenes give a Chorus of any size something to do.
Jack and the Beanstalk Pantomime Script
A giant, a princess, a beanstalk and a two-person cow, all inside nine principals. Dame Trot holds the dairy together while it falls apart around her, and the scale comes from the staging rather than the headcount.
