Home > Pantomime Scripts > Scripts for Large Casts > Snow White
Snow White has one of pantomimes’ great villain roles, an evil Queen with a magic mirror, a pathological need for reassurance, and a genuine menace that the best pantos always need. This script pairs her with Dame Babs, whose chaotic kids and the disguised Prince Frederic subplot bring real comic energy. A large-cast show with seven brothers playable by adults, children or both!
Snow White Pantomime Script Synopsis
Snow White is looking for love, but before she can find it, her stepmother, Queen Devilia, tries to get rid of her forever. Fortunately, she escapes to the Black Forest, where she meets a merry band of bearded brothers.
Back at the castle, Dame Babs is struggling to bake a cake but is getting more hindrance than help from her two inept children, while the Queen plots her next move from behind the Magic Mirror. All the while the Prince, disguised as a delivery man, is trying to deliver an enormous teddy bear!
Will Snow White and the Prince find each other and true love, or will the Wicked Queen have her way and finally become the undisputed fairest of them all?
Mirror, mirror on the wall, this is the finest panto of them all!

Snow White Pantomime Script Excerpt
The 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.
