Dandini in Action..

To be honest, I had no idea that Veronica had such a large part until I saw her in action as Dandini.

Dandini was the sidekick to the prince (a male character traditionally played by a female), which was a larger part with a solo. 

Originally the prince was to have a second solo, but Veronica proved herself and they sang together as a duet instead. 

Veronica was expected to play the horn horribly, which she managed to do with style.

As with all pantos, it was silly...

…with random characters showing up such as this giant bear...

…and random slapstick comedy.

Clearly you can tell I was super proud of Veronica as I’ve included an insane number of photos from the show, but actually narrowed down significantly the more than 1,200 shots I took that evening.
