Panto Day Today!

Yes, today, Wednesday 5 December, is Panto Day! A chance to celebrate all things panto whether you're a panto passionista, a panto fan or just panto-curious.

Theatres across the land are celebrating with all sorts of special events—take a peek at the behind the scenes YouTube clips from Theatre Royal Norwich, or the Sevenoaks Panto downloadable apps, and keep up with the panto performers who are live tweeting all day and throughout performances to give a unique insight into a day in the life of a panto.

Everyone is welcome to participate - you can tweet your panto love at @Panto_Day using hashtag #panto, visit the Facebook page and post your panto pics or ponderings, or find out what your local theatre is doing at www.celebratepanto.co.uk on the What's On page.

Also, launched today on the web site is the Panto Advice Page, packed with tips and know-how from panto professionals—well worth a look—and don't forget to check out topical Twittersphere craze #pantoplanking.

Happy Panto Day one and all!
