As you probably know, here at Pantomime! we like to celebrate amateur panto too. In Issue 9 we chat to 'Youth Onstage', a group in Birmingham who help give younger members of the community the chance to experience live performance and all the life skills that brings. Read about how they got started, and their current appeal for new premises.
