For bigger boys and girls, Into The Bush is packed full of traditional panto fun but with uproarious adult humour, a live band and an experienced cast of unforgettable characters.

The show tells of poor old Buttons and his continuing quest for love after being dumped by Cinderella. Rebound romances rarely work but maybe this time, with the help of a wicked witch, he will be able to find the perfect woman and live happily ever after.

The adults-only show runs from Thursday January 19 to Saturday January 28.
