Unusual Pantomime Scripts

For groups who want a great script. Just not the one every other society is doing.

These scripts are unusual only in the sense that they're performed less often than Cinderella or Aladdin. The stories are genuine pantomime and fairy tale classics with strong traditional roots, there is nothing experimental or difficult about them. What they offer a group is the chance to be the only society in the area doing Rapunzel this year, or the only company that has ever brought Goldilocks to their local stage.

Audiences respond very well to less familiar titles once they're in the room. The surprise of an unfamiliar story quickly gives way to exactly the pantomime they were hoping for, and the director gets to take all the credit for the choice. From a marketing perspective, an unusual title can also be an advantage: it gives a society something specific to say about why this production is worth seeing, rather than competing on execution alone.
