Mother Goose is a good egg, the most giving of souls – salt of the earth and kind to a fault – she would give you her last ha’penny if you needed it. But when her faultless generosity lands her neck deep in the stinking Ayrshire proverbial, it will take a touch of eggs-ellent panto magic to save her Ayrshire bacon. In these tough times who could turn down a Goose that lays Golden Eggs? But will it really help her, or will it set her down a path towards eggs-treme greed and vanity? You can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs after all…
Fraser Boyle and Ken Alexander’s new telling of Mother Goose was a five star hit at the Gaiety Theatre Ayr, nominated as ‘Best Panto (Under 500 Seats)’ in the UK Panto Awards 2025, with a second nomination for Jamie McKillop as ‘Best Supporting Performer’ for his role as ‘Kelvie Goose’.
