Snow White Pantomime Script

Snow White gets one of panto's great villain roles: an evil Queen with a magic mirror and a pathological need for reassurance.

When Queen Devilia sets out to be rid of her stepdaughter for good, Snow White escapes to a château full of bearded brothers, Dame Babs tries to bake a cake with more hindrance than help from Sally and Simon, and Prince Frederic spends most of the show disguised as a delivery man.

The scene everyone remembers is Dame Babs pouring her heart out to an enormous teddy bear, not having noticed the prince sitting behind it. The seven brothers don't appear until the end of Act One, so they can be adults, children or a mix of both, and can be in the Ensemble until then.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, this is the finest panto of them all!


Cast Size: 15 Principal Characters, plus 2 Supporting Roles and Ensemble

Approximate Running Time: 1 hour, 50 minutes plus Interval

Snow White Pantomime Script Excerpt

QUEEN DEVILIA approaches the Mirror in her chambers.

QUEEN DEVILIA: Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror!

THE MAGIC MIRROR appears in the Mirror Frame.

MAGIC MIRROR: I heard your clap so did appear, why is it you called me here?

QUEEN DEVILIA: I have a question for you to prove my point to this horrible lot. (Referring to the AUDIENCE. She composes herself) Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?

MAGIC MIRROR: Again the same as I have seen, the fairest? That is you my Queen.

QUEEN DEVILIA: See, it’s me, the Mirror never lies! (Beat) Still don’t believe me, fine, I’ll ask another one; Mirror, mirror say to me, the numbers for the lottery.

MAGIC MIRROR: (In the style of Lottery Announcer) Well, your majesty, the balls are out and the winning numbers tonight are… Drumroll please…. 1, 13, 17, 27, 35, and 48. The bonus ball is 23!

A member of the ENSEMBLE runs across the stage waving the winning ticket.

LOTTERY WINNER: I’ve won, I’ve won! I can’t believe it! The winning ticket! (Etc until offstage)

QUEEN DEVILIA: See?!? (Beat) I’ll double check I’m still the most beautiful. Mirror Mirror do your bit, tell me who is really fit?

MAGIC MIRROR: Once again, your maj, it's true, the fairest in the land is you.

QUEEN DEVILIA:Oh I love this game! Again, again…  Mirror Mirror look at me, of all the girls, who is beauty?

MAGIC MIRROR: I must say you are too vain, for beauty is now not the same.

QUEEN DEVILIA: (Outraged) What? You’re lying It can’t be anyone else! I’m the fairest in the land! It’s me! Me! Me!

MAGIC MIRROR: Two mins ago it was you, but the fairest is now someone new.

QUEEN DEVILIA: I will not allow this! I refuse to accept this change. I’m the Queen and what I say goes! You can’t just change who the fairest in the kingdom is, you can’t change it! You can’t!

MAGIC MIRROR: Oh my Queen you’ve gone deranged, I told the truth, and the truth has changed.
