BBC Christmas Pantos


A special Christmas present to all! According to Wikipedia, British Pantomime or "panto" is defined as: "a type of musical comedy stage production designed for family entertainment ... [including] songs, gags, slapstick comedy and dancing ... [and] employs gender-crossing actors and combines topical humor with a story more or less based on a well-known fairy tale, fable or folk tale ... performed throughout the United Kingdom, Ireland and (to a lesser extent) in other English-speaking countries, especially during the Christmas and New Year season." This collection contains "Christmas pantos" broadcast on BBC Radio at Christmastime between 1976 and 1999.

This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
