My home for the next few days

[Dom in Dorset]

Orchestra pit for a Panto. I'm actually under the stage.
I get more space than the brass section at the other end :

My view:

We've done 4 or 5 shows so far I think we have five more to do.

Love doing shows.

Our musical director would wake us up at three o'clock in the morning and make us lick the pit clean etc
(I've had a drink too)

Ah Cinders. A long time ago I played a Baby Teddy Bear in a production of Cinderella.
Yes, the all important traditional Teddy Bear role.

I can see how the glamour of the whole thing would be irresistible.......

The weird thing is that we are playing to full houses every time and I don't get any stage nerves.I will play all gigs from under the stage from now on.

Alas no. In various pantomimes I have also appeared as a panda, a bat, a mouse and a winged monkey. Animal impersonations seem to be my speciality!
