Description

The contestants on this year's Bake Off have been doing much much worse than usual. It's almost like... sabotage? Join our crew of almost-recognisable faces as they band together to defeat the world’s greatest evil: Rat Lucas. Using the power of friendship and a predictable parody (or two), will they succeed in the endeavour? Or will there be egg on their faces? Come and find out. There will be puns, buns and tonnes of funs.

Bake off: The Great British Pantomime was a great show. It had everything from great baking puns and song remixes, to a hugely talented cast and an uplifting story. I would seriously recommend this to anyone wanting a couple of laughs at the fringe this week!

Never seen more baking puns in one place. I loved every single second. Mary Raspberry was truly captivating and the rest of the cast worked perfectly to make a delightfully entertaining pantomime musical. Comedy, songs, puns. What more could you ask for!

Great family show, lighthearted, and VERY panto! If you love cheesy puns and a camp storyline, you’ll love this!

Brilliant light hearted, very funny cake based puns and songs. Particularly loved Mary Raspberry and the singing baguette!

This hilarious show seamlessly merges the Great British Bake Off format with pantomime to create an exciting parody, where the power of friendship counters villainous schemes among would-be presenters vying to take the hosting throne! The exceptional all-singing, all-dancing cast perform a beautifully arranged soundtrack of comically rewritten pop hits, including a rendition of ABBA's 'The Winner Takes It All' as a stand-out with angelic harmonies. Complete with a pantomime-ified Mary Berry as a wonderfully sassy panto dame, flanked by a hysterically subservient Paul, this feel-good show is a tasty treat for families and pastry lovers everywhere - everything a pantomime should be!
