It may be Kevin Scott Keating's first time in a dress, or so we've been told. But as Mother Hood, he takes to the cross-dressing craziness of Theatre Britain's latest panto, Little Red Riding Hood, brilliantly – to use a favorite British word.

A panto, for the sadly uninitiated, is a British holiday tradition in which a familiar fairy tale is fabulously fractured. Terrible puns and silly jokes abound, women dress as men and men as women, a ghost pops up and the audience talks back and sings along.
