The ultimate seasonal treat for you, your family and friends is back!

Our devoted team bring you the classic tale of Sleeping Beauty, with fabulous costumes, stunning sets, and non-stop laughs.
It's the eve of Princess Aurora's 18th birthday party and her father, King Lenny the VIII of Watford, is worried sick about the Bad Fairy's curse. Just one prick of her finger on a spinning wheel, and Aurora's dream of escaping the Palace to travel the world will remain just that - a dream. A guitar-playing Prince is the only hope to wake Aurora from her long, long sleep...
Join Good Fairy Fender and Dame Nanny Fanny on this unforgettable, time-travelling magical adventure.
The Palace has been the home of family panto in Watford for over a century. Don't get caught napping - book early to avoid missing out! NOTE:There are no performances on Sundays 1st, 15th & 8th December.more...

Don't miss this year's spectacular family pantomime, Sleeping Beauty starring the wonderfully wicked RITA SIMONS (EastEnders' Roxy Mitchell) and children's favourite ANDY DAY (CBeebies). The show will also star local legend, BOB GOLDING (back in a dress!), St Albans favourites IAN KIRKBY and JEMMA CARLISLE, and West End star, LISA DAVINA PHILLIP.
Written by PAUL HENDY and produced by EVOLUTION, the same team behind last year's Box Office smash hit, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty will have lots of audience participation, lavish sets and stunning special effects (there's even a fire-breathing dragon!)
With some shows sold out and tickets selling fast, Sleeping Beauty will be our biggest and most spectacular pantomime ever, so book early to avoid disappointment! more...
