Interesting, that proves the journal wasn't a one-off, although the British Library only hold the issue i mentioned and as far as I know none were deposited in the Theatre Archives, now held by the V&A. Thanks for this tit-bit of info Nigel. I'm digging around a bit as part of my ongoing panto studies, now part of a Masters in Research.

: Does anyone know what happened to the BPA?
: Gyles Brandreth set it up in the 70s (1971?)
: and it had a publication which cost 28p in
: 1972 called "Panto;the journal of the
: British Pantomime Association". Does
: anyone know if there were any other
: publications and whether it is still going
: in some shape or form? An article in the
: Times of 1983 states there was an
: association survey on the state of the
: British Panto that year. Does anyone know if
: these results can be found anywhere and
: whether the survey was completed each year?
: I would be really grateful for any bits of
: knowledge on the matter - and if it is no
: longer running, does anyone think it time we
: re-instate it?
