Photography Exhibition : Scotland Tour
Men dressed as women. Women dressed as boys. Cringing innuendo wrung out of perfectly innocent phrases. Grown adults inside "cartoon-style" animal costumes. No, not the latest party round at Elton John's gaff but the wonderful world of Panto.
The University of Glasgow has a touring exhibition celebrating the History of Scottish Pantomime. It features pictures, photographs and playbills from a variety of shows; the exhibition also includes rarely seen archive film. There's more info here (oh no there isn't oh yes there is).
