Perfect for Christmas, or throughout the year, this musical promises to be lots of fun!Plot summaryIn a small, provincial village, the locals are excitedly discussing London, where fortunes are made, and dreams come true! (song - Go To London) Down on his luck, young Dick Whittington decides to head for the city, to see if the streets really are paved with gold. However, no sooner has he arrived in London than he realises it's not quite the place of opportunity he thought it would be. (song - This Is London) Exhausted from his journey, he takes a nap on the doorstep of respectable looking house, the owner of which, Mr Fitzwarren, takes pity on Dick and offers him a roof over his head. In exchange for this Dick must work in the house under the comical but mean-spirited cook, butler and maid, who make it their mission to drive Dick to despair. (song - A Recipe For Disaster).To add to his woes, Dick's attic bedroom is overrun each night with rats and mice. (song - Your Furry Friends) This leaves him tired and vulnerable to the domestic staff's bullying. However, he finds a friend in Alice, Mr Fitzwarren's daughter, who promises to keep his tormentors at bay, and advises him that getting a cat might help control his pestilent night visitors. He takes her advice, and with his meagre earnings he buys Puss, a flea-bitten old moggy! They are soon best friends, (song - One Purr-fect Match) and life becomes happier.One day Mr Fitzwarren gathers his household together. He gives them the opportunity to send items on board his trading ship, bound for far-off lands, and the chance to make a good profit. Alice suggests that Dick sends Puss, and reluctantly he agrees. His life in the house soon becomes miserable again, so he decides to run away, but doesn't get very far before he hears the chiming bells of Bow Church. They seem to be telling him to turn back, promising he will one day be Lord Mayor of London! (song - Turn Again, Whittington).Meanwhile, in a distant country, the captain of Mr Fitzwarren' ship is attending a banquet given by the king and queen. (song - She Loves To Shop) Suddenly the palace is swamped by rats and mice, which eat all the food in seconds flat! When the king explains that this happens at every mealtime, the captain tells him he has something in his cargo which might help. At the next hurriedly-arranged banquet, nobody is quite sure what the strange creature is that the captain has brought with him, but they are thrilled to see it deal so effectively with the rats and mice that turn up expecting another easy meal! (song - Go Super-Puss). The captain quickly seizes the opportunity to make some money - a lot of money!Following the ship's return, Mr Fitzwarren again gathers together the members of his household. He presents Dick with a vast fortune - the reward for Puss's heroic performance! At last Dick's luck has changed. He has a glittering future before him, the highlights being marrying Alice, and, as the

Join Snowy and Chip on a voyage of discovery from their threatened forest home to the big city. Meet a host of colourful characters, including the ratty inhabitants of the landfill site, jet-lagged food items on the supermarket shelf, rush-hour drivers and the enigmatic Professor Plantpot, who all show us just how fragile our planet is... and what we can do about it!Plot summaryOur story begins with a meeting of the forest's animal elders, presided over by chief elder, Snowy. The untrustworthy and sneaky Weezil brings news that the humans have plans to 'develop' the forest, and suggests that giving their blessing to such a development would bring the forest residents a wonderful, new, hi-tech standard of living (song - What Kind Of World?'). The elders vote on whether or not to welcome the humans, but with the vote tied it rests with Snowy to decide their fate. Snowy consults the forest goddess, Natura, and is told to take a journey of discovery to the city before making a decision, to find out more about human behaviour.

They witness the waste created by humans, and how this provides a 'paradise' for the roguish rodents! (song - Welcome To Our Paradise.)Next it's on to the supermarket, where Snowy and Chip meet some rather jet-lagged food items, who explain the environmental impact of their being flown thousands of miles just to satisfy human tastes for exotic and un-seasonal produce (song - What's The Deal?).

They meet a very pushy car salesman, only to be 'rescued' by the brilliant Professor Plantpot who, along with some 'green' friends, explains that many humans do care about the planet, and are changing their behaviour accordingly.Snowy and Chip learn how, with a little thought and effort, humans can reduce global warming, save energy, and create less waste (song - Switch It Off). The professor also demonstrates the limitless possibilities of recycling (song - R.E.C.Y.C.L.E.), unveiling Robbie - a robot made entirely from junk!With their new friends in tow, Snowy and Chip are in a race against time to get back to the forest, which has now fallen under the control of Weezil!

Janet Grierson: Gold - The Tale Of King Midas

Janet Grierson: Gold - The Tale Of King Midas

All year round musical for 7-11 yearsRunning time 60 minutes approx.Telling the tale of Midas, the original 'King of Bling', this entertaining new musical delivers all the glitter, glamour and sparkle you could hope for, with eleven memorable, show-stopping songs, and a fun-packed script. Laugh along as the hapless, greedy king with the golden touch proceeds to squander a very special gift. As an extended cast of characters watch in despair, Midas indulges his 'desire to acquire', but ultimately learns a very important lesson ? some things in life are far more precious than simply being loaded!Plot SummaryTo the opening bars of the first song (Such A Wealthy Man) King Midas regally enters and sits on his elegant throne, ready to be waited on hand and foot. Through the narrator's words and ?catty? jibes of his courtiers, we learn of his immense wealth and obsession with all things gold. His love of the other finer things in life, namely food and clothes, are also made apparent through the demands he places on his royal chefs (Song ? We Cook And We Bake) and seamstresses (Song ? Measuring And Cutting), who pander to his every whim. However, when required by his financial advisors to discuss important issues of government, he dismisses them, preferring to concentrate on counting his own stash of gold coins! (Song ? So Much Money)The Queen and Princess Marigold are desperate for Midas to be the loving, attentive husband and father he used to be (Song ? Day After Day), and his once-loyal subjects grow angry that their king?s obsession with gold has led to his neglecting them too, and their crumbling city. (Song ? Our Beautiful City) As things go from bad to worse a stranger visits Midas, offering to grant him one wish, in the hope that he will use it to become a wiser and more caring ruler. Although advised by his wise men and family to wish for something for the benefit of everyone (Song ? One Wish), Midas famously asks that everything he touches turns to gold! (Song ? Gold)Delighted with his new powers (Song ? The Golden Touch), he proceeds to gleefully turn every object in his palace and gardens into gold ? even his roses, much to the bewilderment of his gardeners! He nevertheless soon realises that it is more of a curse than a blessing, when he unwittingly touches Princess Marigold and she becomes a golden statue! With nobody daring to come near him (Song ? Beware), a lonely, distraught Midas begs forgiveness from the stranger who granted his wish. After a humiliating bathe in magical waters, the King is relieved of his golden touch, and vows to make amends for his greed and foolishness... much to the relief of everyone! (Song ? Turn It Around)

Two abandoned children, the wickedest and funniest witch and step-mother you could imagine, a cottage with real 'chocolate-box' appeal, a flock of down-and-out birds, a gang of dim-witted bandits, and a whole lot more go into the mix for this lively and entertaining take on a classic tale.Plot summaryWe begin in the family's poor cottage, where Hansel, Gretel and their father ponder the possibility of running out of food! Their stepmother, on the other hand, can only moan that she needs a new fur coat, which she could have had if she'd done as her mother advised and married the wealthy Herbert Goldsworthy when she had the chance! (song - A Sorry Situation) When the children go to bed, she reveals to her husband a dastardly plan to take them deep into the forest and abandon them! (song - What A Wicked Woman) Having overheard this plan, as they are led far from the cottage the next day, Hansel and Gretel leave a trail of breadcrumbs which they intend to follow home.Tired from their long walk, and alone in the forest, the two children fall asleep. As they doze a flock of hungry birds enters, complaining about the lack of worms, the meagre titbits being left by humans these days, and how their only opportunity for a feed might be to ambush a squirrel! (song - Those Good Old Days) Noticing the breadcrumbs, however, they eat their fill, leaving the children no way of finding their way home!Next, Hansel and Gretel run into a bungling gang of robbers (song - Robbers' Tango), who spot the opportunity to kidnap the children and ransom them for cash! However, their wits are no match for Gretel's, and she and her brother make a comical escape. They run deeper into the forest, where things get a little creepier, and talking trees warn them that 'this is no place for children!' (song - This Bad, Bad Place).Finally, exhausted and hungry, the children stumble across an enchanting cottage (song - The Gingerbread House), built from every delicious confectionary imaginable. Encouraged by a curious group of goblins, they eat their fill, before being introduced to the owner of the cottage! At first this little old woman is welcoming, asking them to stay and rest, and eat as much as they can. However, she soon shows her true colours! Hansel is imprisoned while Gretel must 'force-feed' him in order to, as the old witch puts it, 'fatten him up' for the pot! (song - Better Than One Is Two).As the wicked woman makes final preparations for her big meal (song - Dinner At The Double), it's down to the brave Gretel to once again save the day. Using her cunning and daring she literally 'closes the lid' on the old woman's dining plans and escapes with her brother! After a joyful reunion with their father, the children deservedly celebrate with the biggest, party ever! (song - Finale).
