Game of dames: A day in the life of Everyman panto star Ciaran Bermingham

You might recognise the dame at this year’s Everyman panto — he just so happens to be one of the characters in Game of Thrones. Liz O’Brien meets Ciaran Bermingham.    

THE transformation from man to dame starts as soon as Ciaran Bermingham wakes in the morning.

He lies in bed, thinking about the character he’ll play later that day — in this case, it’s ‘Widow Twankey’, or Aladdin’s mum — in the Everyman Palace Theatre pantomime Aladdin.
