News Story

Last week, we saw the strange sight of Nanny Nora (Nic Gibney) and her son Lester the Jester (Chris Pizzey) making their way over to The Homemade Brownie Company in Basingstoke to get tips on how to bake, in preparation for Princess Rose's 18th birthday, which just so happens to be in panto season.

They assisted in getting the brownies ready for dispatch, and learnt how to make a scrumptious brownie mix, along with the usual chaos and merriment!

Book your tickets now to see this messy duo cooking up some carnage on stage in our delicious pantomime, Sleeping Beauty (12 Dec – 5 Jan).
