Ah here it is...

What I can't find is the actual 2011 panto thread. Very frustrating.
Yes well, as long as you can do the splits and the "hold your foot in your hand with your leg past your ear", there will be a place in the line-up for you....

Mamie, looks like you are the ideal choreographer for us.

You do know what you have to live up to, don't you?

I am not sure how many of my dancing girls are still here? but I do remember Elegran.

LOL, I'm sure we can impose all those restrictions, but not worry, they haven't created smelly internet yet, so any farts will only be for sound effect.
I wonder if the front end of a cow etc has farted on stage ?

Even the best of charcoal knickers have their limits !

Maybe better add a 4th condition of no curries !

Being the " back end of the cow "
I think that I should be allowed to choose my own front end . I will send for the special charcoal knickers in good time but I will need promises from anyone thinking of taking on the part.
1) no beans ( of any kind) to be consumed at least three days prior to performance.
2) must agree to wear said, charcoal
Knickers.
3) must have good bottom muscles for "holding in"

JTP, done you are a fairy (one of several I suspect. but you can never have too many). You should start working on your spells so that you can post them each time you pop up.

Coming in late here, but could I be a fairy with sparkly wings, sparkly shoes, sparkly hair, sparkly and very fluffy dress? Oh and a sparkly wand. I could throw fairy dust over everyone. (Think I have been spending too much time with the granddaughters). I don't have to have a speaking part, just lots of sparkle. I would of course be called Twinkle. Pleeeese? ?

This is my suggestion -- for discusion.

We perform the panto like the story thread.
Decide on a tile, create a separate thread for the panto
(keep this thread for back stage chat)
The leading boy starts the Panto by posting his lines, we each follow on in an organised (that's the first joke) fashion, Just see where the panto takes us.
Anyone can be any character they wish and may change at any time they wish (ie play multiple parts, but not the back and front of the same cow)

We could perform more than one panto, so why don't we start mid Oct.

What do you think ?

Charcoal gusset ! Does that mean the theme tune will be "Let it go"

Actually have we decided on a date?? Things get a bit busy at C**** time.

Oh no we are not- especially myself- there!

Oh Yes we are!

Silly beggars?

Oh no we're not.

Silly beggars - definitely, talented

I am disappointed that I'm not going to be doing any enhancing or thigh slapping, was looking forward to that bit.

This thread is just what I needed to cheer me up. What a talented lot of silly beggars you are keep it going. I love this.

Wasn't Florence foster Jenkins that American with a dreadful voice who thought she could sing? Probably a mate of Trumps!

When is this panto? Is it before I go to the deep rolling sea?

I don't believe that

Sorry I'm not going to enhance anything so I will go for one the ugly sisters, no make up needed.

No Problem FB, so long as you enhance your existing charms

I propose to be the Evil Baron Hardup, should be easy.

Oh no, I'd forgotten that the Dame is always a man. Can't do it then, I'll have to think of another role.

But in this case wobbly the dame is a real woman so blow up boobs not needed (unless Falconbird wants to do an explosive performance!)

What part(s) are you auditioning for wobbly?

I would like to be the juvenile lead as I can do "mutton dressed up as lamb" really well. In fact I frequently do. I know it's not a panto but the song "the hills are alive with the sound of music" will not go away so I must have a song to shriek at the panto.
