Synopsis: | This evocative and glittering musical, set in the 1920's, follows the story of an outrageously glamorous and fashionable couple - The Scott Fitzgeralds. He's a successful young author and she's the stylish young wife who, together, become the envy of all with their high spending and high-flying lifestyle. They created their own world of enchantment. Scott christened the period The Jazz Age, and Zelda lived it. Yet the darker tale that lay behind the dazzling facade just begged to be told. British singer/songwriter Roger Cook (I d Like To Teach The World To Sing/Talking In Your Sleep) felt this was definitely the case and linking up with an old friend and fellow songwriter, Les Reed (It's Not Unusual/Delilah), along with bookwriter Kit Hesketh Harvey (The Vicar Of Dibley) they set about creating a musical out of the fabled couple who epitomised the triumph and the tragedy of the decade. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Arthur W Pinero | |||||
Synopsis: | Although first produced in the West End as The Enchanted Cottage in 1921, on Broadway two years later and in both a silent film version and again by Hollywood in 1945, this was a play entirely unknown to me and not what you might expect from the writer of comedies and farces such as Trelawny of the Wells, The Magistrate and Dandy Dick, though perhaps not so surprising if you think of the social criticism of plays like The Second Mrs Tanqueray. Written in the aftermath of the 1914-1918 War, it presents us with the harsh reality of the lives of mentally and physically damaged survivors and the reception they got on their return. | |||||

Notes: | - | |||||
| In its time Dick Barton: Special Agent made radio history. It began as a weekday 15-minute serial on the BBC Light Programme in 1947, depicting the adventures of the prototype action hero and his two trusty sidekicks, Snowy and Jock. It appealed to young and old alike, always ended with a clifthanger situation, and a feature of the programme was the announcer who endeavoured to whip up audience interest. It ran until 1951 when the same scriptwriters were commissioned to write The Archers which replaced the serial as a sort of farming Dick Barton. On radio Dick Barton was always played tongue in cheek. For the stage, author Phil Willmott has taken this to the n-th degree and sent it up rotten. This presents the audience with every possible opportunity of indulging in nostalgia because, like the radio serial, everybody hams like mad, not least the announcer and his occasional fit of the giggles. The plot is ersatz-007 about arch-villain Baron Scarheart, head of EFIL or Evil Foreigners in London, and his beautiful but treacherous agent Maria Heartburn, who try to rule the UK by poisoning the country's tea. Enter Dick Barton, Snowy and Jock to foil this dastardly plan. The plot takes a back seat because it's the jokes that matter and, with a hero with a name like Dick, the possibilities are endless. | |||||

Synopsis: | Dick Barton, hero of the BBC's 1940's radio serial is back in this, the third of Phil Wilmott's critically acclaimed and hugely successful series of musical comedies. This show works independetly of its predecessors or as the final part of a hilarous trilogy. A ruthless Latin lover Lothario has set his sights on the women of London. No gal is safe from the swarthy continental's sultry seductions as he cha-cha-chas his wicked way into the boudoirs and jewellery boxes of Belgravia. Thank heavens that square-jawed British hero, Barton, is on hand to save the dignity and diamonds of our dowagers and debutantes - but will the fancy footwork of this foreign fiend defeat him? | |||||

Synopsis: | Pantomime about a boy and his cat who set off to London to make their fortune - usually with Dick's Brother (Idle Jack) and mother - there they usually meet Baron Fitzwarren and sail away to seek treasure. In some versions King Rat goes with them to steal the treasure, in others they reach a land infested with rats where they haven't heard of cats and Dick does a deal, returning home rich he becomes Lord Mayor of London. Based extremely loosely on a real person (Richard Whittington, 1350 to 1423), there is a statue of the cat outside the Whittington Hospital in North London where Dick is supposed to have heard the bells say "Turn again Whittington, Lord Mayor of London" as he trudged away from the city. First recorded panto on this theme was in 1814. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Aristophanes. Written by Germaine Greer and Phil Willmott | |||||
| This is legendary feminist Germaine Greer's take on the great classical sex comedy . . .Set in a bath-house steam-room in ancient Greece, the ancient world is gripped by a long and futile war. The women of Athens decide they can take no more and - in secret - they meet with up with the enemy women of Sparta. The women form a pact and the battle moves into the bedroom where it's No Peace,No Love. How will the valiant men of Athens stand up to such a contemptible ultimatum? Ancient fun with a modern twist | |||||

Notes: | From Charles Dickens | |||||
| Dickens' Christmas classic is given an unusual twist in this new musical version. Scrooge's nephew, a social reformer fired up by the inequalities he has witnessed, narrates the magical story of his uncle's transformation for his family on Christmas Eve, as perhaps Dickens himself might have done. This gives a fresh perspective on an oft-told story, while maintaining the much-loved tradition of the original. The score combines carols with songs created by setting specially written lyrics to favourite tunes by great composers. The musical can be staged either by a small group of actor-musicians, or with a company of over twenty actors, making it perfect for schools and community groups looking for a new angle on a festive favourite. | |||||
