Musical theatre for children, usually at Christmas (9)

I believe the answer is:

pantomime

(Other definitions for pantomime that I've seen before include "Traditional Christmas stage show with Dame" , "Theatrical entertainment (usually at Christmas)" , "eg 'Mother Goose'" , "farce" , "absurd rigmarole" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
