January 2008 - Dick Whittington
Venue - The Masque, Barton Seagrave
Dick Whittington - Pantomime is magic! - We truly believe that to be the case. For most children it is the first introduction to live theatre and unlike many other forms they don't have to sit still, keep quiet and just watch the show. No - with panto they can get involved - Cheer!! Boo!! And yes shout "He's behind you" and "Oh Yes it is"... and we're not just talking children here - in the world of panto everyone is a kid. So it gave us great pleasure to perfom this, our first, very traditional pantomime. See the pictures here: Dick Whittington
