Pantomime
To quote from one of my family's emails home:
It strikes me that pantomime is such a part of St. Helenian life that nobody would find the performance amusing.
(Oh yes they would ...)
I told an elderly Saint lady here about our pantomime. Too late I discovered that they don’t have pantos here and that the older ones are rather straight-laced, so the idea of men dressing up as women and wearing spotty bloomers, with the vicar in the audience . . . I think Markyate is now right off her holiday destinations list.
