Panto Tragedy
The devon village of Merton near Okehampton is reeling in shock at the decision not to show its Panto “Snow White and the Seven Asylum Seekers“….The world will no longer be able to see the really politically correct Chemical Ali, Comical Ali, Back Ali, Dark Ali, Bowling Ali, Ali G and Ali-Kiss-Angel.
In the panto they (the seven Asylumn Seekers) all work illegally at a quarry near Merton and live in squalor in a cottage in the woods where they are portrayed as living off baked beans and never bathing. Its villain was to have been an evil Queen and her sycophantic butler Tony, named after Tony Blair.
A number of the Cast and Crew have now resigned in protest after someone realised that this was maybe not the right sort of christmas panto to be putting on.
