1 / 3Circa Theatre
đ Te Aro, Wellington
Wellington's intimate professional theatre staging live pantomimes and family productions. Shows weave in topical adult humour alongside the physical comedy kids love, and the attached restaurant makes it a full evening out.
I came to the Alice in Wonderland pantomime here and it was excellent. Absolutely hilarious, highly engaging for the audience. Very spontaneous! It was enjoyable for all ages, with topical jokes for the adults as well as kids that had the whole room laughing. Would certainly recommend!
đ Family Action Verdict
Take a child aged five or older to a Circa pantomime and you'll both be laughing â the writing pitches the comedy at multiple levels so parents aren't just sitting there enduring it. The restaurant before and drinks after round out the evening.
