| Goldilocks And The Three Bears [Version 3] by Warren McWilliams |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 5. Minimum Female roles = 5. Minimum total with doubling = 15. Minimum total without doubling = 37. Chorus. The authors notes suggest that performance with a cast of 15 is possible, but would require losing some of the circus performers from act 2, with redistribution of their lines. Otherwise the minimum would be 21. |
| Run Time | Around 100 minutes. [Estimated!] The run-time assumes the use of the 14 suggested songs. |
| Music | The Producer's Copy of the script includes suggestions for 14 songs. Lazy Bee Scripts does not supply any sheet music with this script. |
| Style | Full-length pantomime straying a long way from the original folk tale with plenty of unusual characters and pantomime silliness. It's a fast-moving panto with plenty of good jokes. |
| Synopsis | Goldilocks, with her brother Billy and their mother Dame Gertie Gemmell, ventures into the woods to recruit a new act for their circus. They find one that's just right - three dancing bears. But the twisted debt collector Mr De Ville is set on closing down all circuses. |
