Set in a living room turned fairy-tale viewing hub, ‘Castlebox’ follows classic fairytale characters as they watch and react to their own stories, Gogglebox-style.

Princes, princesses, witches, and heroes share unfiltered opinions on plot twists, bad decisions, and “happily ever afters”. Are the stories really as magical as they remember, or will seeing them on screen make the characters question everything they thought they knew about fairytales?

All characters, story and scenes were created by members of Bury Youth Theatre Seniors using fairytales as their starting theme.
