A mob of protestors had stormed and disrupted the nearby Covid test centre yelling 'shame on you and taking boxes of Covid tests (currently in short supply) and placing them in the bin. Dissatisfied with causing havoc at the busy test centre, these louts forced their way into the theatre mid-performance, interrupting the show and scaring young children watching the show prompting furious parents to express their anger on social media with one saying:- "To anyone that took part in the demonstration in Milton Keynes today - forcing your way into MK theatre and traumatising a lot of small children that came with their families to see the panto was a pretty low stunt".
