A perennial favourite, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves has delighted children and parents throughout the recent history of pantomime. Guaranteed to fill the seats of any theatre the antics of the dwarves, the, sweetness and naivety of Snow White, the wickedness of the Queen and the disembodied voice of the magic mirror all combine to produce a panto masterpiece.
Unfortunately, those miserable people at Disney will not allow us to uise the film names of the dwarves, nor the film music ! The dwarves have been renamed however to reflect their characters as follows: Medic, Tired, Angry, Tisahoo, Shy, Smiley and Stupid. Read part of the script here:
Act One
Scene Five
(Pyrotechnic stage left, Wicked Queen appears and sits before the mirror. Spot on her)
Queen: Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is fairest of them all?
(No answer, faint snoring is heard)
Queen: Mirror mirror on the wall

(No answer. Louder snoring.)
Queen: Hey!!!
(Abrupt end to snoring, Mirror splutters and coughs)
Mirror: What?
Queen: Am I still the fairest of them all?

Queen: Good grief!
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is fairest of them all?
Mirror: I told you the answer to that last time you asked
Queen: Humour me
Mirror: As you wish…………….There was a Scotsman, Englishman and a…….
Queen: Not that sort of humour dolt! I mean tell me again who is fairest of them all
Mirror: Ok ok don’t wet your pants! Er-hem
To tell the truth oh Queen of mine
You’re getting old and fail to shine
There is another, Snow White by name
Who has a better claim to fame
(Queen leaps from chair in anger)
Queen: Snow White! Impossible, she’s dead
Mirror: Alas cruel Queen your plan was poor
Of Snow Whites fate I can’t be sure
She’s still alive, that much is true
And much, much prettier than you!
Queen: We’ll see about that!
(Exits stage left in a huge huff.)
