Comments

This show has been going from strength to strength over the years and seems to be as popular with many grown ups as it is with children!

It features some lovely props and is great for audience participation and banter. Pirate maps are a give-away at children's parties

Pirate Birthday Party

We had Chris perform at my sons 5th birthday party recently and he was absolutely brilliant. I have had so many positive comments from the children and parents who came. I would highly recommend. NetMums

Captain Barnacle

I've been hiring Chris Brown's Pirate Panto nearly every year for almost 20 years now as it is nigh on impossible to find anything better.

Chris is very professional, turns up on time, sticks to all the requirements and is just very easy to work with. Sarah, Fairyland Trust

Fun for everyone!

Not only did he keep 22 three and four year-olds entertained, he gave the adults a giggle and got them involved with a song and dance with their children. Chris is worth every penny. Sharmaine (NetMums)

School Pirate Day

Captain Barnacle visited us for a fun filled pirate day this week and what a fantastic way to start our topic! The children were enthralled by Captain Barnacle's performance and loved joining in with his show. They learnt an enormous amount from the pirate workshop and they are all so eager to continue our pirate topic. Pirate Workshop, with Pirate Panto Performance
