I love ...Those green faces are magnificent, Lesley! I love pantomime for all the reasons you highlighted - but especially the fact that good triumphs over evil. Also great that pantomime manages to cater for all ages - something that as a member of the audience looks easy but I'm sure is a real skill for the writer to achieve. Thanks for sharing your experience. :-)Rae Cowiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10213969901991611348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855283511538601375.post-72777077436017037752016-04-24T10:16:01.476+01:002016-04-24T10:16:01.476+01:00I do my best!I do my best!Lesley Cookmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699182779296799170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855283511538601375.post-8956625113461334802016-04-23T16:29:07.446+01:002016-04-23T16:29:07.446+01:00Lovely post from which I've learnt things both...Lovely post from which I've learnt things both about you and about panto, Lesley.

As a child, it was my dear Aunt Frances's Christmas treat to my brother and me to go to the 'panto' (said in a very Welsh accent!) on the first Saturday after Christmas. We would have a box of Malteser's (how noisy they must have been!)to scoff as we watched. A choc ice was the treat in the interval. A couple of Christmas's ago I took my grandchildren to the pantomime, and goodness did they love it! Emily - four - loved the singing and the dancing. Alex - eight - got most of the double entrendres. And the upshot is ..... Emily has joined a young performers group and did her first show earlier this month. Pantomime will live on!
