The ‘semi-autobiographical’ debut picture book from award-winning storyteller and pantomime professional Mama G, Oh Yes I Am! celebrates the annual festive tradition of pantomime and explores how theatre can provide a safe space for many children to be themselves.
At the beginning of the story, Bobby lives in a grey world, with grey people, living a grey life. On the outside, Bobby looks like a grey person, but on the inside, he wants to be colourful. One day, Bobby’s mother takes him to a pantomime, where everything is bright and full of colours, and Bobby realises what the magic of self-confidence and self-belief can do.
A funny and colourful story about accepting yourself and others, Oh Yes I Am! explores the magic of panto and is the perfect gift for any child attending their first show this season.
Mama G’s story of acceptance is accompanied by fun and colorful illustrations by Toto, co-author of the popular picture book The Frog’s Kiss.
In addition to publishing her first picture book, Mama G is also currently touring her one-person pantomime for children, The Magic Bookmark, which has already toured to many other theatres across the UK, as well as the Hay Festival and the Edinburgh International Book Festival.
Mama G is an award-winning year-round storyteller whose work is inspired by the magic of panto. She has been a panto professional for nearly twenty years, appearing in productions all over the country, as well as writing, directing and producing pantomimes for theatres and holiday parks. Since 2018 she has been sharing stories with children and their families, taking them to libraries, theatres, schools and festivals, including the Hay Festival, Cheltenham Literature Festival and even ZSL London Zoo!
