Shoeboy In Pumpkin Land (Libretto)

Shoeboy in Pumpkin Land is a wonderfully surreal and Carrollesque opera for young people, brought to you by the wacky partnership of mad lyricist, Max Scratchmann, and round-the-bend composer, Michael Dyer. Dealing with the joint themes of alienation and acceptance in a darkly comic manner, this easy-to-stage one-act opera is the perfect vehicle for schools and/or youth theatre companies seeking to help children confront serious issues in a fun way. Jasper Jedd is an ordinary boy except for one little thing - he is born with a shoe for a head! And in this feast of devilish wit and roguish musical creativity he sets off on a journey through the dark forest of the fearsome Ginkle Snicks to find the mythical Pumpkin Land, where he hopes he'll finally fit in... (Duration: 35 minutes) The cover price of this libretto includes photocopying rights for one production.
