The story sees Santa kidnapped to the planet of Chaos, and the characters of the dame and the captain have to go on an adventure to rescue him as it is most important that he makes it back for Christmas Eve in time for his own journey around the world.

Councillor Mary Farrell said that there is a cast of 15, as well as 50 young children in the chorus, with a total of 75 locals involved on stage, and that there has been three months of rehearsals in preparatio­n.

‘The panto fosters the talent in Kilmuckrid­ge and young people experience what it’s like to take part in a production like this, being part of a team and the commitment involved and then they see the end results.

‘It has been a fantastic three months of preparatio­ns, and the panto always creates an atmosphere in the village,’ she said.
