Hi Simone, the Panto is usually performed by; activity coordinators, nurses, kitchen staff, maintenance people, gardeners, residents' relatives, and friends of the facility. The audience (residents) are seated watching the Panto. Having said that, if you have residents capable of performing, all the better. Let us know if that is the case. Cheers.
We recently performed the pantomime "Alice in Wonderland". Our residents had a fantastic time, rehearsing, organising costumes etc...They performed it for their families and friends while feeling nervous but they all did a great job. It was followed by a sausage sizzle. A fantastic day was had by all.
THANK YOU for ALL YOU DO! Your website is remarkable and I'm so glad I found it! It's truly made my job easier. I go to private care homes (5 to 8 people) and do fun activities once or twice per week.
Whether the residents are sitting or standing depends on their ability
