Darowyn mummers in larkrise (51* d) RE: mummers in larkrise 22 Feb 10


It is worth pointing out that the mummers play in a fictional village contains whatever characters the scriptwriter cares to include.
In the Re-imagined village on a thread elsewhere, the traditional, equal opportunities, Mummers play always includes the Countess Bathory, Boadicea (spelled that way), Cleopatra, Jack the Ripper, Werner Heisenberg, and David Beckham (killed in the first act by most of the previous).
The highlight of the play is the song battle between Beelzebub and the Demonettes, doing the Doo-Wop version of the Lords Prayer backwards, and the slick Rappping and Hip Hop moves of Sweeny and the Mudcat crew doing "The Cutty Wren."
Something useful might have come from the programmme though.
Perhaps one could start to refer to those people who just stare, eyes bulging, at something that challenges their ideas, and moan "It's just WRONG!" as 'Twisters'.
If there were smilies I'd add one here.
Cheers
Dave
