Belle Duchant lives with her inventor father and her two horrid sisters, in a small village in rural France. When Mr. Duchant goes off to the Big City to sell his latest invention, he gets lost in the fog and stumbles across an ancient castle where a Prince lives hidden away from the world because of the witches curse which has turned him into a hideous Beast. Belle agrees to live with the Beast in exchange for her father's freedom and despite his appearance she falls in love with him. Just in the nick of time, and with a lot of help from the audience, she breaks the evil curse, so they can live happily ever after. Bright, colourful and not at all scary, so very suitable for all ages. It has everything you need to make the season go with a bang. Fun and enjoyment for everyone guaranteed.

A wonderful BITESIZE stage adaptation of Robert Browning's classic narrative poem. The town of Hamelin is a very pleasant place to live but it does have one BIG problem. RATS ! They fought the dogs and killed the cats, made nests inside men's Sunday hats, and even spoiled the women's chats, by drowning their speaking, with shrieking and squeaking, in fifty different sharps and flats. They're everywhere and the local Ratcatcher has tried everything he can think of. Lucky for the villagers, the Pied Piper has come to town to deal with the vermin..... But when the greedy Mayor refuses to pay him, the Piper exacts his revenge. A company of five with full set, costumes, lights & sound; bring you this epic tale full of fun, laughter and enjoyment for all ages and lots of opportunities for follow-up class work.
