We have a wonderful English tradition of family theater where men dress as fat ugly women and women star as the lead 'boy'. Oh, how could you not enjoy this? There's great audience participation when we get to shout, "He's behind you!" when they can't see the baddies. I always try to catch the annual pantomime at Hackney Empire. Hilarious, and not just for the kids.
When? Throughout December and January.
