The Victoria Theatre in Halifax has issued a ban on plastic children's toys ahead of this year's Christmas pantomime due to environmental concerns and complaints that the toys can distract performers. The theatre will instead sell its own toys: hand and finger puppets will "encourage pantomime visitors and their children to make and share stories inspired by their pantomime experience ... for years to come", a statement said.
