Berwick Kaler and Martin Barrass, stars of York Theatre Royal’s famous panto for more than 30 years, nearly didn’t make it through 2017. It was the first York Theatre Royal pantomime I’d missed since I started in 1984. The best theatre shows this Christmas – from panto to Pinocchio and Narnia Read moreI’m biased, but I think the York Theatre Royal panto is the best. My first panto in York, in 1978, was terrible – the script was awful and had been around for years, the sets were falling down. I’m not going to go on forever but I’m still as passionate about pantomime as I was when I first started.
