Joe Conlon first walked on to the stage of the Gaiety Theatre at the age of 13 and he knew immediately that that's where he wanted to be. Fast forward to today and Joe has become synonymous with Panto and theatre in Ireland. He spent 15 years as the iconic Gaiety panto dame, Nana, and has been in countless productions in that role and many others besides.Joe has now decided to hang up his panto boots to concentrate on other projects, including focusing on his own drama school, which he has been running for many years. So we thought it was a great time to sit down with him and chat about his many decades on stage, the importance of drama and drama schools for building confidence in kids, Ireland's phenomenal acting talent, working with Brad Pitt, and lots more.COMEDY – Is RTE paving the way for the return of Ryan Tubridy?Produced by Patrick Haughey, AudioBrand

The smoke from a pipeFrozen solid by sunshine;a different soap in the bathroomand the scent of wintering apples.The house stands like a single wordon an empty pagewith its long flat views and memoriesof waves breaking on the hills.Never at television, Just the crooning happy faced radiowith its box full of singersbathed in the yellow glowof Hilversum and Moscow.And at the end of the day Jesus smiling from the walland my Grandmother reading promisesfrom scripture tightly scrolledand full of random surprise. It was to do with dying. Christ walking away from the picture and waltzing my grandmother into the sunshinein time to soft voices from her radioas we shower them with handfuls of promises.All the words from the Bible, falling like snow.

Panto, short for pantomime, has become a staple of British Christmas celebrations but surprisingly its origins are neither British or Christmassy. It has its roots in the ancient Roman festival of Saturnalia, which was celebrated in December and involved dressing up as the opposite gender, swapping roles, and having a lot of fun. The word ‘pantomime' comes from the Latin ‘pantomimus', which means ‘actor who plays every role'. The Romans also had a tradition of performing plays called mummia, which were based on stories from Egypt. How did panto come to Britain? What are some of the earliest examples of panto in Britain?
