In a year of unprecedented anxiety and uncertainty, I find it oddly reassuring that Panto is still going ahead. Other, less hardy forms of the arts may lock their doors, turn off all the lights and pretend nobody’s home, but not Panto. No, Panto is the one throwing wide the door, striking a fabulous pose and yelling Ta Daaaa!!
And thank goodness. We need a good dose of levity right now, and
Red Riding Hood fits the bill nicely. Originally intended to be socially distanced lived performances, they will now, due to restrictions, be streamed online only for a minimum donation of £2 – bargain! It must be very odd for the performers to be acting to the echoing, empty auditorium – especially in a comedy, when the silent pauses for laughter resound uncomfortably. You’d never know it, though, as this troupe really gives their all for their virtual audience ....
