Is there a Christmas pantomime on the horizon? Oh, yes there is! Whether it’s the city centre, Ballymun, Dún Laoghaire or Tallaght, there’s definitely one near you from this weekend to mid-January.

Here’s everything you need to know, along with the dates and prices.

Jack and the Beanstalk, Dundrum

Celebrated for their one-hour pantos that provide a hassle-free experience away from the city centre, The DLR Mill Theatre Dundrum is hosting a festive production of Jack and the Beanstalk.

“Join Jack and Jill, the girl of his dreams, in this crazy journey filled with enchanted beans and a towering Dundrum beanstalk,” promotion for the show states.

“The Dundrum village dairy is experiencing financial strain due to surging rental costs. In an effort to cope, Dame Trott, played by panto favourite Garry Mountaine, has embraced the role of an Instagram influencer and personal trainer.

“Meanwhile, her son Jack embarks on a quest to sell their beloved prize cow, Winnie. What could go wrong!”

From December 5 to January 5. Tickets from €16 to €24, with a family of four costing €79.

Beauty and the Beast, The National Stadium

Johnny Ward is reunited with panto favourites Alan Hughes, who will once again play the iconic Sammy Sausages, and Rob Murphy as man-mad Buffy.
