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. |
