Dec. 22 update: Winter Storm Update: The Panto-Lorian is cancelled tonight (12/22).
It's become a December tradition for Mercury Players Theatre to feature a new play in the British panto (pantomime) tradition; the plays are family-friendly, and cheering (or booing) is encouraged. Nick Schweitzer and Steve Noll follow up on 2018's Star Wars: The Panto Strikes Back with another journey to other planets, The Panto-lorian: Episode 1,750 of the Star Wars Franchise. It's guaranteed whoever is playing Baby Yoda will get some cheers. Performances at 7 p.m., Dec. 16-17, 21-23 and 26-28; and 2 p.m., Dec. 17-18; tickets at bartelltheatre.org.
