Spooktacular Pumpkin Train Adventure-
Hansel and Gretel Halloween Pantomime
There's something spooky in the forest. This year the Rathwood Express will give a modern spin to a classic fairytale adventure in our magnificent Halloween Pantomime by Verdant Productions. With an all singing all dancing cast and just a little bit of fairy magic, this show will have the whole family screaming... with laughter.
- Hop aboard the magical Rathwood Express train and travel through a forest full of spooky characters and surprises to our newly refurbished Rathwood Big Top.
- Come join Hansel and Gretel in a spook-tacular musical show and help them escape the wicked Gretchen's clutches with songs, dancing and a little bit of fairy magic. Things get a little spookier during the 2.30 shows, so we recommend that younger or sensitive children come to the earlier shows.
- Don’t forget to dress up in your favourite spooky costume on the day (this includes mammies and daddies!).
- Warm up with free hot chocolate for every child booked on the Rathwood Halloween Train.
- Pick out a complimentary pumpkin from our pumpkin patch to take home as a spooky souvenir.
- Visit our funfair on the day for even more excitement!
Recommended age: 3 - 8 years
