Kenilworth play looks backstage at pantomime
Look Behind You by Daniel Wain will be staged from Wednesday September 7 to Saturday September 17.
Many see pantomime as a cross-dressing, thigh-slapping, wise-cracking world, where men are women, monkeys talk and dreams come true.

A spokesman said: “Whether you love panto or hate it there is something in this dark comedy play for you. Daniel Wain’s tragicomic panto-within- a-play chronicles both the on and off-stage lives of the cast and crew of a repertory production of Dick Whittington that is rapidly going downhill even on the opening night.
“The traditional family pantomime? Oh no, it isn’t!”
The show is not suitable for children.
