OH NO IT ISN’T!<br />

Oh yes it is! It’s pantomime season, and although<br />

<strong>Lewes</strong>’ own hugely popular traditional<br />

St Mary’s Social Centre panto, Mo<strong>the</strong>r Goose<br />

this year, does not start until Saturday 10th<br />

January, tickets sell out quickly, so book early<br />

on 477733. Me, friends of Dorothy and anyone<br />

who’s ever wondered what would happen<br />

‘if I only had a brain?’ will want to head off to<br />

Brighton’s Theatre Royal to see <strong>the</strong> wonderful<br />

Wizard of Oz, on from 5th Dec-4th Jan.<br />

A seminal experience <strong>for</strong> me was playing <strong>the</strong><br />

Wicked Witch of <strong>the</strong> West in a primary school<br />

production. If I do say so myself, I did make<br />

<strong>the</strong> role of evil, cackling old hag very much<br />

my own.<br />

Alternatively, that provoking minx, Snow<br />

White (fairest of <strong>the</strong>m? Fix!) can be found<br />

with <strong>the</strong> usual crew of strangely named little men at <strong>the</strong> Devonshire Park Theatre, Eastbourne, from<br />

12th Dec-11th Jan. Frankly I’ve always thought <strong>the</strong> stepmo<strong>the</strong>r gets a re<strong>all</strong>y raw deal.<br />
