About this event

Recommended age 7+ CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF THE TRON PANTO She’s no’ just frozen… she’s baltic! Christmas is running like a dream down in Santa’s (aka Kristine Cagney Kringle’s) workshop. All nice and naughty lists have been checked off. Nothing can go wrong. Until a broken magic mirror unleashes pure chaos and transforms Rudie The Red Nosed Reindeer into the terrifying Snaw Queen. No Rudie with his Red Nose? Then no Christmas presents can be delivered. Christmas now looks almost certain to be cancelled. Kristine has no option but to team up with Olive (the other reindeer) on a dangerous quest across the pantosphere, past poisonous pensioners and their soprano sunflowers, past all-singing cowboys coming straight fae the Grand Ole ‘What Have We Got Here Noo’, to underground lairs where the people sound like they’re fae North Kelvinside, all whilst battling temperatures colder than Glasgow in July. Will they ever find what they need to bring Rudie back to their rosy faced self? Will Christmas be saved? Will the Snaw Queen’s heart thaw? If you dinnae book now, you’ll find oot hee-haw… Written, directed by, and featuring Johnny McKnight, The Snaw Queen is a remount of an old Tron Panto favourite, and one that reunites him with his original Olive (the Other Reindeer), the incomparable Julie Wilson Nimmo ! Written, directed by and featuring JOHNNY MCKNIGHT (ACHIEVEMENT IN INNOVATION – UK PANTOMIME AWARDS 2026) Designed by KENNY MILLER (BEST SET, GALLUS IN WEEGIELAND – UK PANTOMIME AWARDS 2026) Composer & Musical Director ROSS BROWN
