Pantomime in Gibraltar
One of the many good things about living in Manilva is that if you do feel a little homesick for British shops or traditions, Gibraltar is only 30 mins drive away.
Main Street is not dissimilar to a British High Street with Marks and Spencers, British Homes Stores, Monsoon, Next, Dorothy Perkins, Wallis, Peacocks, Top Shop etc. having a presence. Morrisons is the main supermarket there which almost had a monopoly but I have just heard that Eroski have opened just over the border, Gibraltar side, and are going to stock many Waitrose products.
One tradition that I thought my kids would miss out on living in Spain was the great British Panto. However a few years ago a friend asked me if I wanted to go to the pantomime in Gibraltar and we had such good time that we have been going ever since.
This year the pantomime is Calamity Jane and there are 4 performances left:
Thursday 31st at 7.30, Friday 1st at 7.30 and Saturday at 2.30 and 7.30pm
If you are interested and would like tickets, the box office at Ince’s Hall will be open from 6 – 7.30 weekdays and before performances and 1 – 2pm Saturday.
