Dancing with the star
A MAN wearing a wolf’s head paces the floor looking for trouble. A knot of actors — all shock, all horror — respond in slow motion as they rehearse the closing scenes of Little Red Riding Hood, this year’s pantomime performed by the Cork Academy of Dramatic Arts (CADA).
Their every step is watched intently by choreographer Darragh O’Leary. Something is not quite right. He wants the madcap sequence repeated over and over so the timing and movements are synchronised. With dollops of good humour, the cast — all ages, all sizes — obliges.
