PANTOMIMES
Pantomime includes songs, gags, slapstick comedy and dancing. It employs gender-crossing actors and combines topical humour with a story more or less based on a well-known fairy tale, fable or folk tale. They often use direct audience address which children like as they feel involved.

Musicals are also a big hit among children. A lot of musicals are based off of films, some of which weren't originally musicals, like Mathilda the Musical. However many were already musical films, such as, School of Rock, The Lion King and Aladdin.
QUESTIONS TO ASK CHILDREN
- What's your favourite film and why?
- Have you ever seen a show at a theatre?
- If so, what was it and did you like it?
- What is your favourite fairy tale and why?
- If we were to perform a play for children your age, what do you think we should include and why?
- Would you like it if the actors on stage would ask the audience questions to interact with them?
