Miscellaneous notes from the author
Style:
British pantomime, starting from a nursery rhyme character and veering off into a fun original story that provides everything you want in a panto - adventure, humour, lots of songs, baking incidents, and dancing penguins.
Synopsis:
A Fairy grants Cora Crust a potion that makes her cooking irresistible. Along with her son Simon, Cora builds a bakery empire that threatens to put Peter Pie and his daughter Penny out of business. The fairy decides things have gone too far and threatens to expose Cora unless all can work together as a team and complete four unusual tasks.
