Director John Savournin said: "Our regular festive home, the King's Head Theatre, is closed to live performances, so we're delighted to be able to spread a little Christmas cheer with a Charles Court Opera Boutique Panto like no other. We're looking forward to taking audiences of all ages on a magical online journey packed with panto fun, laughter and silliness, in this chocolate box of festive treats."
Snow White in the Seven Months of Lockdown' is the King's Head Theatre's first show since the venue closed in March. A cheeky reimagining of 'Snow White', it is inspired by Charles Court Opera's wildly successful 2015 King's Head Theatre panto, 'Mirror Mirror' (5 stars Whatsonstage, 5 stars Critics Pick, The Stage). It is Charles Court Opera's 14th annual panto, and the sixth in partnership with King's Head Theatre.

King's Head Theatre and Charles Court Opera are both painfully aware of the number of their colleagues and friends that have not been able to work with and support this year. They will be donating a share of the profits from this production to the Theatre Artists Fund, and would like to thank the fund for all the work it has been doing.
