I love rhyming couplets
@Petter Are they fit for children or just the au pair nannies?
@FrayedBear They are aimed for adult audiences, but without anything unsuitable for children, mainly because it would go over their heads.
For instance, when a colonel asks about the meaning of LGBT and is told that it is to do with what people love, he replies.
"I knew a captain who loved his horse.
He got twenty years for that, of course. "
@pixiedust Pantomimes were originally satirical plays with political humour based around popular tales, such as Dick Whittington who became the Mayor of London. Or Puss in Boots, or Aladin and the genie of the lamp. In the UK they have degenerated into stupid farces put on in early January, and featuring so called celebrities. Mine were both written in the original mould with quite a bit of satire.
@pixiedust The first used a mix of the children's tales Jack and the Beanstalk and Goldilocks and the 3 bears as the basis of the panto. The second is a completely original skit on British residents in a coastal town in Spain, with a witch, a wizard, pixies and the resident population, complete with a love interest story, an evil schemer, a transvestite, a village gossip, and a crusty, retired colonel. All in rhyming couplets, interspersed with songs to which I have rewritten the words. Took me 7 months to write it!!
