My First Panto
My first memory of panto was in the seaside town of Hunstanton in Norfolk. I must have been about eleven or twelve and already at the stage of tap dancing down the aisles of the co-op! Two things stood out to me about panto, one was the colours, the beautifully playful array of colour that was plastered on without restraint. Simple and un-abandoned. The second was the main character, the dame and the over sized nature of it all!! I understood it was a man and loved the silliness of the costumes and ridiculous wigs, his huge nose and funny eyebrows, but it was the fact he talked to us, the audience; swung wooden sausages around and pulled those rye faces. We were included in the joke. We where part of their fun, the "company's" fun and that feeling for me meant so much. 'Oh know it didn’t’, 'Oh Yes it did' !!!
