The show, which will be hosted at The Theatre Royal for three nights, comes to the city following a successful week-long run in London’s West End.

An important part of PwC’s community programme in the UK, the pantomime supports thousands of children from inner city schools, as well as local charities. Pupils from across Glasgow have been invited to the show, receiving tickets, transport and snacks donated by sponsors. They’ll be joined by around 150 PwC employees, plus family and friends, for the magical adventure on 8th, 9th and 10th February.

Volunteers from across PwC Scotland will ensure the show runs smoothly - from looking after the cast’s hair and make-up and building sets, to assisting guests across the three-night run.

Jason Morris, regional market leader at PwC Scotland, said: “The PwC Pantomime has become something of an institution, and is an amazing experience for everyone involved - from employees and children to volunteers alike.

“It’s a vital part of our community outreach programme, helping to inspire children to fall in love with the arts, and it’s brilliant to see this kind of investment into our future generation taking place in Glasgow this year - which is such a vibrant hub for the creative arts.

“A big thank-you to everyone involved in the production who have all worked tirelessly to ensure we put on the best show possible. I’m very excited to see the performance live, and I hope everyone who comes along is thoroughly entertained.”

As well as enabling more than 8,000 local children to enjoy a night at the theatre in London and Glasgow, the pantomime is also raising money for national charity Become.

Become helps children in care and young care leavers to grow and unleash their full potential. Its vision is that care-experienced people have the same chances as everyone else to live happy, fulfilled lives.
