Animal sidekicks, audience interaction, silly songs and terrible puns make up the pantomime style in the Arcata Playhouse's latest holiday show, The Grasshopper and the Aunt, based on Aesop's Fable The Grasshopper and the Ant. Director, Sarah Peters and performer, James Peck discuss their new play, describe the classic pantomime style and sing us a song.
