Nature is healing.

It’s official. The Olympia Panto will return to the theatre this Christmas.

Following the Government’s announcement, the theatre confirmed that the family show will return this winter.

This year’s show is Olly, Polly, and the Beanstalk.

Starring in this year’s panto is Fair City’s Ryan Andrews and Maclean Burke, influencer and comedian James Patrice and Erin McGregor.

The Panto returns on December 22 and will run until January 9.

The team wrote: “We’re beyond excited to have a live audience again and are back with big surprises and even bigger laughs.”

Panto star Ryan Andrews said he cannot wait to have a live audience back in the Olympia.

He told RTÉ: “We’re going to have a brilliant time interacting with a live audience once again. You just can’t beat a panto crowd for audience participation.”

“We’re really looking forward to this. It’s going to be a fun show with a laugh-a-minute script, dazzling dancers, and all-star cast,” he added.

Tickets are available via Ticketmaster.

There’s no doubt the return of the Olympia Panto is going to make this Christmas feel that little bit more magical for many families.
