pantomime

I saw this article about Henry Winkler starring in Peter Pan. It looks like Patrick Duffy is also in the neighborhood. Both are starring in pantomimes. When I first saw that I thought, "wow can you do Peter Pan with no words?" But, pantomime is different in the UK, it is a theatrical style typically performed around Christmas. You can read more about it here.

But perhaps the more interesting news was that Henry Winkler is playing Captain Hook because David Hasselhoff backed out at the last minute! I can't decide which would be cooler, having The Fonz performing down the street...or the Hoff.
