The Christmas Panto

The Christmas season is upon us With lots of things to show NO THERE ISN'T , YES THERE IS And the best of them's the Panto Dick Whittington and Aladdin Are two that I've forgot But I've heard that they're amazing YES THEY ARE, NO THEY'RE NOT A tradition every Christmas The Panto finds the kid Inside every one who witnesses NO HE DIDN'T , YES HE DID!! Actors dressed as women Silly fun for all to see NO IT ISN'T , YES IT IS And lots of fun for me There's nothing like a Panto To make the people yell NO IT DOESN'T, YES IT DOES It's a laugh for me as well This year I chose my Panto I'm going to see the lot So, I will wish you Merry Christmas I WILL SO, YOU WILL NOT!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND ENJOY THE PANTO IN YOUR AREA.

i used to love going to the pantomime when i was little lots of fun and subtle innuendo that went over a child's head - a great night out for all the family:-) hugs Jan xx

I have no idea what a Panto is but I really loved the argument repeated in the middle! Very well done and very funny! It was one of the DAMN, I wish I would have thought of that moments. A FAV for me!

google "panto" and you'll be amazed. it's basically an over the top production of a kids tale where the actors and the audience interact, choosing sides.
