Pantomime Dame Opening Spot - Dame Trott

[@stefanssmellsvictory105]

Whatever this guy is being paid, it ain't enough haha! Great performance. As a children's teacher who has to do this kind of thing, I know how hard it is to engage kids. This guy did a standup job!

[@RobertPearce]

Thanks! You can also check me out as storytelling dame Mama G over at: kzbin.info/door/paZXkcPSlb3LZbZ7pDkD7w

I didn’t like it at all. He didn’t perform with any heart. He just got out there and delivered his script. He performed it like he’d done it a million times before and he didn’t give anything time to breathe. There wasn’t any real relating to the audience. He would’ve performed it exactly the same if the audience was empty.

Dame Trott is a VERY well remembered Pantomime character alright! I remember seeing her on Jack and the Beanstalk pantomime one year at Christmas alright!

[@amazingabby25]

Whose here from UK drag because they are an confused seppo aka American

[@vazidajetako]

[@RobertPearce]

If you listen to the Chop with Manila and Latrice they read out my explanation about what a panto dame is! Hope you're enjoying UK!

[@KathyM]

This “seppo” is not confused.

[@taradonnell6191]

OMG how did you know 😂

[@youre_totally_right_but_]

Great performance! Wish i could fly there and watch live😭

[@Kane_plays_2013]

I did watch live

[@HawkerBlue]

I do love a good panto dame. It's my fave role to play when I do local community theater

[@johnnyBgoodson]

Nice. Not often you hear an 'Animal Farm' gag in a pantomime. Or anywhere, for that matter.

[@antoniawiggans9748]

I like it!

[@williamturner898]

I've followspotted more pantos than I care to remember. That's some good dame-ing right there.

[@whitediamond000]

This audience is completely dead. A shame as a Dame is the backbone of most Panto and this one was nailing it as far as I'm concerned. Oh no she wasn't? Oh yes she was~ 😉

[@Alison-Shy-Serendipity]

Oh dear that audience is rubbish, they obviously do no how a panto works hope I can do a good job with my cast as a director. to really get the audience cheering ahhh in and booing

[@RobertPearce]

I think it's down to the fact that the sound was taken from the desk and obviously the audience aren't mic'ed. x

[@eugenekilgallon587]

As a fellow performer I can confirm that that was probably the issue.

[@YayaBunWa]

@@RobertPearce Ahh, right, I forgot about that. Even as a bloody sound engineer, I wondered whether the audience just sucked or what. Guess that just means that, when we did hear them, they were ridiculously loud. Ahaha, good stuff.

[@KathyM]

For me, some of the jokes were for a more mature audience. Kids are hard to play to. They react to the visual. Even if the sound was better, I don’t think you would have been able to reach them. Kudos to you for taking on such a hard audience.

[@Steampunksaly]

The audience isn’t rubbish it’s the script writer that needs to be sacked

[@ffioncross5949]

Jon.

[@oolpp8829]

He's handsome

[@restingindistress]

Yeah he’s a drag queen you twat

[@annewollstein3511]

Opening is too long and the audience is too young. He did a marvelous job, must have been real hard work

[@RobertPearce]

Hey Anne! This is actually pretty short for a dame opening spot - but for sure the jokes were a bit sophisticated for the audience we had in that performance! Thanks for watching :)

[@dibensy59]

Those jokes would work better if the audience was not distracted wondering how that basket is staying on his head.

[@RobertPearce]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@handledav]

no

[@vaslav030547]

It didn't work. He died.

[@ВикторЗадорнов]

Что за чушь?
