LITTLE THEATRE MOVEMENT

One of the first LTM undertakings was the launching of the tradition now known as the National Pantomime. The first production, in 1941, “Jack and the Beanstalk, was in keeping with the tradition of English Theatre from where it came to Jamaica. In that form, a tale of childhood was adapted for the stage with elements of music, song, dance, comedy, drama and colorful costumes and sets.
