I would oft while away a boring meeting (before I learned how to avoid them and became a better person for it) by casting the company pantomime out of my fellow employees.
The same might well work here.
So I nominate myself as the Narrator
Nick can be Buttons ~ the loveable but incapable joker.
Wenchy as Principle Boy ~ Prince Charming (Lots of leg on show and some thigh slapping in that part).
Barman just has to be ~ Baron Hardup
Miss D ~ Cinderella
Berek & Growler ~ The Ugly Sisters
Darwin I think is a natural for ~ Widow Twanky
TMR ~ Wishy Washy the laundry boy
LandLady ~ The Good Fairy
Pussy Galore will need to supply her own Boots
Tinkerbell can do LL's stunts for her as flying about the stage on a wire might just be asking too much of her.
Now we need a villain rubschin: Pity CJ isn't around but perhaps we could persuade Uncle Mort to take the part.
The rest of you ~ bring your own tights ~ you're all in the chorus.

Not really ~ just passing the time away on a boring wet afternoon whilst the children watch a James Bond movie in the other room.
But you will note, if you follow the link, that it is one of the Principle Parts. Many a famous actor has played the part in the past.

Apologies Snoops, my knowledge of Panto is scant - we were only allowed to go to Lewes on 5th November and watch effigies of the Pope being toasted, which, in itself, was a riotous laugh. It's just the moniker "Wishy washy" - most of the poor unfortunates that know me, know me as a rabid, opinionated, hates-everything, to the right of Ghengis Khan, growling tinderbox that has a very short fuse...

Ahhh . . memories of my beagle - except his habits were somewhat less salubrious! He used to eat the blessed stuff eeek:
Totally untrainable mind, one word from me and he did exactly as he pleased. We used to refer to him as the 'Blacksmith' 'cos every time we opened the door, he made a bolt for it! (Boom Boom)

Our Beagle was untrainable too. And an escapologist. God knows how he got out of the back garden (short of Steve McQueen jumping exploits on motorbikes) but we would regularly get phone calls from some poor deranged dear in Banstead stating the hound was in her house after trying to rape her mad tom cat. He was only a little chap, but would attack anything, generally - and then try to sh4g it. Good dog!

Seems to be a beagle trait does that. Ours got himself locked onto a dachshund bitch once despite having no balls at all!
God alone knows how he managed that but he did. Took half an hour of assorted howling before they were parted! Bloody glad that doesn't happen to us human types, though as a mere shadow of my former self, it's mainly memories now. cry:

Ahem! Some of us have feelings you know. evil:

I did, however, train the Beagle not to bite me if I attempted to remove any sort of food from him. I don't know how. Perhaps he felt sorry for me. I still, vividly, remember taking a big lamb bone off him and then chucking it under a writing desk - he flew in after it and thirty seconds-odd later, I hears the crunching. Do all Beagles have such strong jaw muscles? Thirty seconds later, the old man went in to remove said bits of lamb bone and emerged with Beagle hanging from his forearm, having clamped himself there and refusing to budge. For about five minutes, the old man held his arm at ninety degrees with the hound hanging and the blood flowind. He gave up first, not the hound. Various bones in his forearm were crushed during this. I laughed, lots.
Old man clobbered me for laughing, then told me I was in charge of the hound from then on.
Corking!

The same might well work here.
So I nominate myself as the Narrator
Nick can be Buttons ~ the loveable but incapable joker.
Wenchy as Principle Boy ~ Prince Charming (Lots of leg on show and some thigh slapping in that part).
Barman just has to be ~ Baron Hardup
Miss D ~ Cinderella
Berek & Growler ~ The Ugly Sisters
Darwin I think is a natural for ~ Widow Twanky
TMR ~ Wishy Washy the laundry boy
LandLady ~ The Good Fairy
Pussy Galore will need to supply her own Boots
Tinkerbell can do LL's stunts for her as flying about the stage on a wire might just be asking too much of her.
Now we need a villain rubschin: Pity CJ isn't around but perhaps we could persuade Uncle Mort to take the part.
The rest of you ~ bring your own tights ~ you're all in the chorus.
Barman - Is this your feeble attempt to witness some girl on girl action ;) lol:
What is the budget for costumes???
Will the lighting be soft and favourable- any chance of a few candles perchance???
Have you carried out a full Health and Safety risk assessment for assorted persons flying on high wires???
Do you really know what you are doing lol:

Nothing to do with Barman ~ my idea.
Certainly not looking for "Girl on Girl action" thanks all the same for the offer sick2: Simply following a time honoured tradition.
From your previous descriptions I rather thought you and Wench had enough tat to make the costumes.
Lighting will be as normal in these circumstances. If bright lights are a problem to you ~ speak to make-up and they'll give you some slap to cover the wrinkles. Deffo NO CANDLES! (I can't imagine what you are thinking of)
Since Tinkerbell is doing the flying stunts, to obviate the need for high wires, your H&S pleas are wasted.
Do I know what I am doing? ~ Well since the idea is a Fantasy Pantomime that you have ascribed to the wrong person ~ I have to ask ~
Do You? point:

;) Weeellllllllll .... The "Principle Boy" is traditionally played by a young lady but one that is usually an established star and thus a bit older than the heroine (who nowadays is a young lady plucked from a soap opera) It is normal to select a "star" name for the part of PB and main requirements are "Vivacity and athleticism". One who has made quite a career out of the role over the years is Anita Harris.
Here she is as Peter Pan:

Monkey Glands ~ I'm told

Tells you all you need to know.
The Russian-born Dr. Serge Voronoff of France was the initiator of the "monkey glands" fad of the 1920s and 1930s, persuading dozens of men that pieces of monkey testicle implanted in their own testes would give them increased potency. He came up with this idea after noting that eunuchs aged faster than the non-castrated. Voroneff wrote a book about his process in 1926, which spread the idea around the world. A Dr. Leighton Jones was famous for the same procedure in Australia, and cases of this transplant being done are known in the U.S., Italy, Russia, Brazil, Chile, and India. It was sometimes difficult to procure the monkeys needed, and monkey houses to raise the animals sprouted near Voroneff's location. (Since the vivisection of animals was illegal in England, human testes were substituted.)
Voroneff's procedure: "The monkey gland would be cut in pieces of about two centimeters long by a half centimeter wide and a few millimeters deep. The surgeon would then introduce two grafts in the scrotum, which he fixed with stitches taken off after eight days." (Gillyboeuf) He later tried grafting monkey ovaries in women, but did not continue this line of thought, though it is sometimes credited as an ancestor of hormone replacement therapy for menopausal women.
