Pantomime in

The Pantomime in Scotland project’s planned outputs were:

- briefing paper (pantomime census/economic impact study) - book (co-authored) - book (co-edited) - DVD - exhibition and catalogue (touring) - popular history book - website and oral history dataset

The following outputs have been completed:

- briefing paper – findings of economic impact study.

- composition/score –

- newly copied and prepared score of pantomime music from 1869 correctly identified by research project; - newly copied and prepared scores of selections of pantomime music from the 1920s and 1930s newly discovered by the research project.

- conferences/seminars –

- four papers (Exeter x 2; Glasgow; Sheffield).

- consultancy work for Ambassador Theatre Group (King’s Theatre Glasgow) in respect of a Heritage Lottery Fund bid.

- DVD –

- The DVD was planned to run around 80 to 90 minutes but the project’s discovery and identification of new materials facilitated a longer running time of 165 minutes. - Other unplanned elements of this output include: specially recorded archive music; new specially commissioned piano scores; and, specially recorded voice-over commentary. - Further unplanned elements of this output were a short archive sound film and a short archive sound film advertisement. Both are very rare and were previously only available on film and accessible only within archive conditions. Both were digitised and brought to publication as an unplanned part of the project.

- exhibition and education programme –

- a touring exhibition – with interactive elements – was presented in venues in the east and north of Scotland in 2008/2009 - ie King's Theatre Edinburgh, and Concert Hall, St Andrews, His Majesty's Theatre Aberdeen, Eden Court Theatre – and in venues in the west of Scotland in 2009/2010 – ie Motherwell Theatre, King's Theatre Glasgow, MacRobert Centre Stirling.

1 - An unplanned element of this output was its enhanced interactive elements specifically targeted at children as well as other education resources including a printed guide to the education events and other materials specifically for children.

- In each venue the project delivered an education programme, ranging from drama workshops and art workshops for schools groups and/or family groups to drop-in reminiscence events at the King's Theatre Edinburgh and Perth Theatre and 'family fun days' at Eden Court and MacRobert. The project also delivered exhibition tours and backstage visits at Eden Court, MacRobert and King's Theatre Glasgow, along with a 'Parliamo Panto' platform event with the cast of the King's Theatre Glasgow.

- media coverage – range of broadcast (both radio and television) and printed press coverage generally linked to exhibition and DVD.
