Cork Opera House set for record number of panto shows — oh yes they are!

Theatre chief executive Eibhlín Gleeson confirmed yesterday that following a record panto box office take last year — with 49 of the 54 Beauty and the Beast shows selling out — this year’s panto, Cinderella, has been extended to cope with demand.

It will open a week earlier, on December 1, and run a weekend later, until January 22 — a record 66 performances. Several shows are already sold out.
