"I'm so excited that we're sharing Damian's Pop-Up Panto online! We were determined to bring panto joy to Christmas and I can tell you, with this show the team has excelled themselves - it's hilarious!

We are so grateful to donors, Neil and Julie MacDonald, who have generously supported us to share the show with every school across the City Region at the beginning of January. After what has been such a difficult year for us all, I hope the panto can help to bring some much-needed cheer to our region and beyond."

Damian's Pop-Up Panto will also be shared virtually with Sheffield Children's Hospital and nationally through the Starlight Children's Foundation to reach children across the UK who are staying in hospital over Christmas.

From 4 - 8 January, thanks to the generosity of Neil and Julie MacDonald, the Theatres will partner with Learn Sheffield to offer the panto for free to classrooms across the City Region.

Damian's Pop-Up Panto will be available to watch on demand from midday on 23 December through to 3 January inclusive. Household passes will be priced from only £15 and will enable audiences to watch as many times as desired for three days from the time of purchase.
