The Panto Project

Sleeping beauty

 

get excited!

We’re back this holiday season with the premier of Sleeping Beauty, a feel-good Panto that will have your whole family singing, laughing, and dancing in their seats by celebrating the power of chosen family, the magic of true loves kiss, and the defeat of Evil Queen Karen! With our typical exuberant mayhem, we promise spectacular dream sequences, 40 pies in the face, and even time travel! Sleeping Beauty: She Woke!

From the dream team that brought you Jack & the Bean Stalk and Dick Rivington & the Cat, comes an all new holiday spectacular from the Panto Project, a five-year community commitment for Festival Family Fun.  We are your neighbors who believe that accessible high quality-low brow theater changes lives and makes the world a more magical place. Viva la panto!

ONEOFUS’s primary focus is artistic excellence in performance while uplifting under-recognized talent and marginalized voices. Our work lies at the cross-section of the global circuit of vaudeville, circus artists, disability rights activists, and our local New York City community on Grand Street in the Lower East Side. ONEOFUS increasingly pulls talent and audiences from this neighborhood due to the strong belief that theater should be made for and by the community. It is because of this commitment to our neighborhood and its most vulnerable communities that ONEOFUS has partnered with Abrons Arts Center and Henry Street Settlement to create a multi-year, holiday theater program: The Panto Project supported by Creative Capital, NYSCA and ChaShaMa.
