While many theatres around the UK are putting on covid safe pantos for Christmas 2020, many have had to cancel or postpone their pantomimes.
So, for your panto fix this year there are lots of online streaming pantomimes that you can watch from the warmth and comfort of your own home, whilst supporting theatres across the South and East of England at the same time.
Below is a quick 2020 panto guide, but you can check out everything in our What’s On Theatre / Panto and Christmas sections.
