Whilst not being able to achieve charitable status for itself Paignton Pantomime Productions has a proud history of donating money to various charitable organisations since it's first production in 1935.
Some years have proved more difficult to dispense such donations than others as when harsh economic conditions threatened the Society's very existence. However in 1984 the Committee decided that it was time to put charitable support on a firmer footing and from that time a specific charity has been nominated for each production. This allows the organisation collecting rights at the end of each performance and at the end of the run the amount collected from the audience is boosted by a significant donation from the Society's own funds. In recent years the serving Mayor of Torbay has kindly presented the cheque on behalf of the Society to a representative of the charity on stage after the final performance.
