Description

Pantomime is a much-loved national institution, but how is it created? What tools and processes are used? Working from purely a title, this practical book explains how a script and a design can develop together through the creative processes to culminate in the wonder and excitement of a unique production on opening night. This new book explains how to get started in writing and designing an original pantomime and how to use major professional productions to illustrate established techniques and new innovations. It examines pantomime traditions and scene structure and how these can be utilized in productions today. It describes how staging design can influence the narrative; looks at how pantomime characters develop through their costume and, finally, explores the tricks and magic essential for pantomime.
