‘Oh No It Isn't - A History of Pantomime’

Peter Allen gave an excellent talk to the Dartford Branch on Saturday 7th December entitled 'Oh No It Isn't - A History of Pantomime' it ranged from the Greeks to the modern celebrity pantomimes of the current theatre circuit. Among the pantomimes mentioned was those put on in the WW2 prisoner of war camps by Allied military troops. The prisoners even produced programs that are now available online and there are also Red Cross photographs of the shows featuring cast members. By coincidence the Society are at present trying to produce an index of the Queens Own Royal West Kent Regiment's WW2 prisoners.
