The world’s first interactive live panto
When theatres closed as a result of the 2020 pandemic, I produced Cinderella Live: an online pantomime performed live from our studio, with the audience joining in from home – or anywhere with an internet connection!
Virtual production in Unreal Engine placed the cast inside fantastical worlds in real time. Schools, families and even cruise ships tuned in from around the globe. The format returned as Santa Live: The Christmas Panto in 2021 and 2022.
