Snow White
by Craig Hewlett published 2009
Suitable for All Groups
Price: £6.00
Co-written with Eddie Goddard, this is a new version of the classic tale featuring the Wicked Queen, the Seven Dwarves, and a new comedy duo, Gladiators Wolf & Scorpio.
"Craig and Eddie are to be congratulated on this new take on a familiar classic. The script buzzes with comedy brilliance. This is not your standard version of those loveable dwarves. These dwarves are renamed and get their name from their defunct variety act. They sing, dance and even rap! Taking the mickey out of modern commercial panto, the Gladiators find themselves in the comic firing line.
If you're looking for something fresh, then this script is well worth a look. Even imaging the staging and audience interaction, this panto really grabbed us from start to finish."

The Wicked Queen's Magic Mirror tells her that her stepdaughter Snow White is the fairest in the land. The Queen tells her Gladiators, Wolf and Scorpio, to take her into the forest and kill her. But they let her go, and she seeks refuge in the house of the Seven Dwarves. The Queen, disguised as an old woman, gives Snow White the Poisoned Apple, but she recovers. The Seven Dwarves devise a cunning plan to enter the Queen's castle and deal with her once and for all.
