Craftily adapted from Luff?s own panto script ""The Adventures of Dick Whittington"", this modern re-telling of a familiar favourite follows a very traditional panto format with an unlikely cast of villains, pirates, fairies, cats and rats crowbarred into Boris?s story. All the usual panto ingredients are there ? slapstick, sword fights, pacy sketch routines, audience participation and a great big loveable cat called Cameron who somehow manages to become Prime Minister. And the kids will love Doris Morris?s messy cake-making scene. Boris the Panto will take adults and kids alike on a highly original, politics-free journey featuring the blundering and bizarre adventures of the world's second most unlikely politician.
