They can mainly be traced back to the old 16th-century Italian commedia dell' arte tradition. However, the first use of the word 'pantomime' was in the Harlequin-inspired 'Ballet-pantomime', The Loves of Mars and Venus, staged at Lincoln Inn Field Theatre in London in 1717. The first 'modern' pantomime as we see now dates back to 1773, when the Theatre Royal in Drury Lane presented Jack the Giant Killers (Jack and the Beab Stalk), followed within the next three decades by Robinson Crusoe, Aladdin, Babes in the Wood and Cinderella
