It is a tough act to follow after last year's Glesga Shark, but we think we've cracked it with The Best Dance of All Time! But we need your help to dance along with us!
We are looking for the best Best Dancers of All Time to send their videos to us on social media, on our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram with the best ones winning a return trip to the Panto in January 2020!
To get the backing music for this, simply visit our YouTube page, youtu.be/zfQSukLWdaY and play it from here.
We look forward to seeing your entries soon!
Thanks to Glasgow With Kids for this great review of Pinocchio! It is a great family night out.We were asked to go along to see Pinocchio at the Pavilion Theatre and to let you all know what the kids thought of it since it’s such a family oriented panto. So here goes...
The girls both had a brilliant time. (They were enthralled for the whole thing!) They loved the slapstick comedy with falling off seats, toilet rolls getting flung about and at one point, trousers falling down. They loved the bouncy castle whale (when Pinocchio ends up inside a whale) and all the effects that came along at that part (bubbles etc). The audience participation at the end was a huge hit & both of them loved doing the dance with Jiminy Cricket.
They also both mentioned how much they loved the dancers & the little lady’s friend now wants to be a panto dancer when she grows up!
It’s a great show. Brilliant for families. 👍 It’s on until the 12th January so plenty time to get tickets if you fancy it!
(These tickets were very kindly gifted to us by the pavilion theatre.)
It is with great sadness today that we hear of the passing of Bob Bain. Bob was a great friend of everyone at the theatre from the staff, cast and management.
Bob spent many years guarding the stage door and everyone loved hearing his stories from the theatrical past and we are sure he had a few stories that he couldn’t tell.
The world of variety theatres across the country have lost one of their greatest friends as Bob kept variety going with his involvement in the Scottish Music Hall & Variety Theatre Society.
We thank you Bob for all your help, advice at the Pavilion over the years and our condolences are with his wife Elenor all his family and friends.
“Happy for Tabs” as they say in the business.
Here's a very quick time lapse of Jiminy Cricket (Liam Dolan) getting ready for tonight's show!

“Do not miss this not to be missed type of thing! If I wasn’t in the show I’d definitely be in the audience watching myself intently. Laughing and learning in equal measure. Thoroughly happy to pay the admission fee and definitely not asking for a refund. Also not rustling sweet wrappers and fiddling with my sodding telephone with a gormless expression on my face. See you there!” ARTHUR

Tickets on sale Friday 1st November 2019 at 10am!
He’s a legend and an icon, a revolutionary and an immortal. John Lydon – aka Johnny Rotten – changed the face of music and sparked a cultural revolution. The frontman and lyricist of the Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd (PiL) caused a political earthquake and transformed music for good. To coincide with the publication of his new book, the brilliant, funny and insightful I Could Be Wrong, I Could Be Right, he is touring the UK. Lydon will talk about how he sees life, along with his unique and extraordinary career, and take audience questions during a pyrotechnic, one-off tour. Lydon will be sharing his thoughts with audiences. He Could Be Wrong. He Could Be Right.
VIP meet’n’greet packages are available and signed copies of the book will also be available.
A big thank you to everyone who came along tonight to celebrate our tribute to Joe Longthorn MBE. It was a night of laughter, appreciation, nostalgia and tears. It was great memories putting together the video footage we used tonight and it’s clear that Joe is Britain’s Greatest Entertainer EVER.
From his early days of television through to his sell out show at the London Palladium it was class from start to finish.
Thank you Joe for all the memories. It was a pleasure to work with you over all these years, a pleasure to have you at the theatre and you will be sadly missed but we will never forget you.
From all your fans, thank yoi for everything and may you be in peace.
The big screen is all ready for tomorrow night's Celebration For Joe Longthorne in what is sure to be a great but emotional evening.
