The Magical Adventures of Pinocchio
The Team are back with a Brand New Pantomime Adventure.
Following the overwhelming success of last year’s production Cinderella, we have decided to take the team on another Panto adventure and hope that you will join us!
It has been one of our favourites over the years and we think that we are the only theatre in the country to produce “The Magical Adventures of Pinocchio”.
As always, we base our Pantomime on the original story but have that Glasgow twist in true Hilarious Pavilion style and you can be confident that it is Good Clean Family Entertainment.
It is sure to be a Sing-A-Long, Join In Adventure and an all star cast and currently we have confirmed:
Liam Dolan as the Hilarious Jiminy Cricket, River City’s Stephen Purdon as Pinocchio, Grado as Geppetto, and more of the Cinderella cast to be announced very soon and a few additional surprises.
With a brand new Script, Stunning Scenery, Sensational Costumes and Magical Special Effects that we have become known for, it is sure to be; The Best Panto in Town!
We have Generous Discounts and Concessions available at all performances so why pay over inflated ticket prices at other productions when you have the; Best Affordable Panto in Glasgow here at the Pavilion.
So don’t leave it too late, BOOK NOW to get the Best Seats for your Family!
It is the Fun Filled Panto for ALL AGES!

Since it opened in 1904, the Pavilion has stayed close to it roots producing and providing a traditional venue for Comedy, Music, Variety and all other areas of Entertainment.
Situated in the heart of Glasgow’s Theatreland, the Pavilion is one of the oldest theatres in Scotland but is well equipped to produce the best in entertainment in the 21st century.
There is something for everyone at the Pavilion, come and see!
Took my son, his friend and my niece and we sat in the “Royal Box” it was fantastic. We laughed our socks off. Especially when Pinocchio’s friend ended up beside us when he was shot from the cannon! My son says that’s the only seat he’s sitting in next time!
Was fantastic my daughter and two granddaughters had a fantastic time.xx Can’t wait till next year.
Great panto once again. The fantastic Liam dolan stole the show so funny.
Fabulous pantomime as usual. Laughed and laughed, great show!
Looking forward to this year’s pantomime!
Another fantastic production Well done to all involved. Can’t wait till November Until The Next One
This was a fantastic panto the 12 days of Christmas was really funny Stephen Liam and Grado had the whole theatre in stiches every one on stage pulled off another great panto looking forward to seeing the new production.
Liam Dolan totally stole the show what a performer.
Whole cast was amazing wee bogus ( Stephen & Scott )Grado all work great on & off screen. 5 star performance looking forward to next hopefully the same cast
Saw the show on Tuesday, I really enjoyed it, but didn’t quite reach the mark Cinderella did last year, but it was still a very enjoyable evening, was crying with laughter during 12 Days Of Christmas Sequence, cannot wait to see what next years choice is 🙂
one of the best I have seen, everything about was fab
went to the panto today have to say one of the best in years everything about it was fab well worth seeing
Took the kids to the panto and they absolutely loved it. Haven’t been to a panto for years and the cast certainly did not disappoint us. So much so the kids have asked to go back again they liked it that much. Well done guys you were brilliant
Saw show last night. Hilariously funny. Best Panto ever. Please bring same crowd back for this year
Great show laughed all night another great panto and fab cast
Great night at the Panto yet again.
This was our second visit to see Pinocchio becoming a habit coming twice.
Can’t wait to see what this years will be.
Great day at The Pavilion. Loved the panto, Liam Dolan, Stephen Purdon and Scott Fletcher were all fantastic. Thanks for the laughs enjoyed every minute
Another fantastic panto at the pavilion tonight best panto ever favourites where Pinocchio, geppetto , blue fairy and lampwick can’t wait too find out what the next panto is.
Great show , great performances from all..
What a show I loved it so much it was hilarious I am on my way to go and see it again on Thursday. Can’t wait
Hadn’t been to a pavilion panto in a number of years mainly because of nicola park starring on the show. No offence to her but she really wasn’t my families cup of tea so we decided to go elsewhere for the last few years, which weren’t the best either, we stayed at home last year and put our family tradition on hold.
However last night we decided to have a fu day out in town then went along to the night time Pinnochio performance. Wow, we were ALL blown away, even the kids. We laughed from start to finish. Stephen Purdon was great as always and it was great to see him alongside Angus, it really made it special. This was our first time seeing Grado perform and thought he was absolutely hilarious, the connection he had with the crowd was priceless, but I do think Liam Dolan stole the show with his comedy routine even if a few in our party couldn’t keep up with the pace of the jokes!! The dancers were tremendous and the person playing Stromboli was a funny and great BADDY. Overall it’s a wonderful show would recommend to any family before week..just hoping it’s
a similar cast next year! And the 8 (if we are all still living ha ha) will be there 5 stars!!!!!
I am sooooo excited that Santa brought me tickets for this show. xxx
10 of us, four generations of family aged 6 to 80yrs went to the show today. We all loved it. The cast were superb. The ad libs/mistakes made the show particularly scottish. The dancers were great. Specially the two young men. Athletic and creative. I was engaged by a young couple in front of me who had brought their tiny daughter, maybe 8 months old. She was bouncing to the music and smiling the whole show. Great job folks.
Best pantomime ever
Liam Dolan was brilliant and grado was better this year than he was last year, overall the show was great, blue fairy stand in did exceptionally well, best wishes to holly jack
What a great show! Atmosphere was great and lots of laughs from all ages!
Show was fantastic as usual cast is brilliant kids loved it would defo be back grado is the best x
Just arrived home from yet another fantastic pantomime at the pavilion, we’ve been going on 2nd January for years and one show is better than another, tonight’s show has been my absolute favourite by far, everyone involved made the show absolutely fantastic, as usual Stephen purdon was brilliant but i must say Scott Fletcher was my favourite ,when he opened the show singing and dancing I was really impressed by his singing voice, hope to see him in more shows in the future, Thankyou all i had a great night laughed from beginning till the end. See you all next year 2/1/21
Fantastic show great music awesome jokes the cast was amazing fun for all the family what’s going to be next
Fantastic show, good clean fun for all the family and really funny. Whole cast were amazing and shout out to Stephanie who stepped in to be the Blue Fairy, she was fantastic. We’ll be back next year.
What a fantastic night Scott Fletcher and Stephen Purdon took time to chat to us at their break time. My grandson got a photo with Scott what a lovely person, yes the cast really worked hard to make it fun for us all. Well done all and thank you.
Myself my 6year old and my 19 week old had an absolutely fabulous time tonight such a good laugh my daughter went with her school and had a ball so I decided to take her back and I also loved it. As for my baby being there I was unaware of the baby in arms policy so sorry to anyone that was annoyed by her being there she also watched the full show and for being so young you could see she enjoyed the show she was wide awake and making lots of noises she cried once but quickly stopped as I dealt with her straight way and it was more during the brake as there was nothing to watch.
I went to see pinocchio with my family on boxing night. It was superb! I havent laughed so much in a long time. All the cast were fantastic. I will be back with more family next year
Brought back some memories watching that show especially with wee bob in it, I was one of the dancers in the last Pinocchio performance. Would go back to it in a heartbeat. Well done everyone
An outstanding performance in every way. So much fun. Sumptuous costumes, amazing dancing, highly entertaining script, wonderful cast. Great music.

Can’t praise it enough
Costumes dancers special effects stars and music all fabulous

Fantastic night Liam Dolan just makes it magical what a night well done everyone
We attended Pinocchio in a family group consisting of gran, mum and 2 kids. The show was a concoction of colour, music, magic tricks, acrobatics, dancing, comedy and special effects, without giving too much away.
The star of the show Pinocchio is a loveable rogue who is full of the Glasgow banter, he and his Papa Geppetto make an amusing double act. Along with their friends the Blue Fairy, Jiminy Cricket and Lampwick they set out the defeat the baddies with some unexpected adventures along the way.
Gran’s favourite bits were the dancers who gave full energy to every performance and were very talented.
The kids favourite parts were the acrobatics and special effects.
Mum’s favourite bits were the slapstick comedy and Glasgow banter.
Well done to all the team for another fantastic show!
Went to see the show last night with my daughter and granddaughters, what a night absolutely fantastic best Panto I’ve been to in a few years. From start to finish excellent cast dancers special effects, money very well spent, might even go back in January x
Loved this new panto Pinocchio, fresh to the Pavillion. Costumes sparkled, cast super sparkled, a family delight.
Jiminy Cricket (Liam Dolan) set the ball rolling and cast the audience under his spell with whistles, jokes and jolly brolley singing and dancing. The hard working Papa and Pinocchio charmed everyone and all in all this panto has gone up a gear in costumes, speciality acts, laughter and good clean family fun.
Must mention “Laura” a kindly member of staff who rescued an elderly lady by tying her boot laces for her so she could walk safely back to her seat. Laura you too are a star, Thank you.
Can you please pass on my thanks to scott fletcher and stephen purdon for taking the time last night for a photo with my grandson and my daughters friends and work mates it was my grandsons 12th birthday yesterday and every year for the past 10 years they have went to the pantomime at this time. sadly this year baileys mum passed away 6 weeks ago and my daughters friends asked if I would take bailey in her place and thou it was hard for me it was worthwhile to see him laugh and dance along with everyone and to get a photo at the end of the night made it more special for us all so thank you was again.
Pinocchio was absolutely brilliant, the twelve days of Christmas was the highlight, my daughter laughed all the way through
This the funniest panto I have seen for a long time. The cast were great “Ahm buzzin” the dancers were superb. Well wortj a travel through from Fife to see. Will bring the grandkids back definately. Well done you guys.
great night for all the family best panto i’ve seen in a long time
great cast stephen and grado are great together and the songs dancing had the kids up on their feet
Thank you for putting on a great show tonight. Pinocchio was great.
What a night absolutely loved Pinocchio. We laughed so much as the cast where fantastic and so funny. The light up wristband’s and lanyards are a brilliant idea, my little one and her friend where fascinated by them and loved that they interacted with the show. Grado and Stephen Purdon steal the show with their performances, they are absolutely fab. My daughter just love’s Grado….(“It’s yerself!”) Well done Pavillion another outstanding panto!
Can’t wait two see this panto on Dec the 15th
If Cinderella was anything to go by this should be a cracker. Getting the tickets book this week.
