The Princess & the Courgette

An Adult Pantomime

Tendrils Tickle has never been so... tickled.

When King Dick and Queen Fannie discover their son Prince C***stiff must marry before his twenty-fifth birthday — or the crown slips into the decidedly limp hands of his cousin, Lord Flaccid — a royal challenge is issued! Any Princess brave enough to endure a long, hard night with a courgette tucked beneath her mattress will win the Prince's hand by morning.

Princesses come and go (some faster than others), until the plucky Princess Fitztightly finally rises to the occasion. But when Lord Flaccid gets his hands on more than he bargained for, he whisks her away — leaving his wife, the delightfully dodgy Lady Chlamydia, to slip into her shoes and hope nobody notices the switch.

With dame Annie Rection stirring up trouble in the kitchen, her seductive cat Suspenders purring for attention, and hapless duo Knobweed and Nipplewort fumbling through every scene, this is a night where nothing stays hidden under the covers for long.

Expect double entendres thicker than a courgette, a villain who can't quite rise to the occasion, and a happy ending that satisfies everyone.

Naughty...  but absolutely stuffed with laughs.

Suitable only for those who like their pantomime with the innuendo turned all the way up.
