Goosed at the RVT

The Royal Vauxhall Tavern pantos are the stuff of legend and this year they are getting totally Goosed. Adding their own spin to the classic Mother Goose this ‘not family friendly’ eggstravagnza is set in a ramshackle bar in Vauxhall-Land and the cast includes the brilliant Topsie Redfern as the scheming Kelly-Anne Con-Witch who is determined to get her perfectly manicured mitts on the Golden ‘Egg’. The main run is in December but next Thursday (16 Nov) there’s a special preview. Tickets at vauxhalltavern.com
