About the book.

 Someone, and I genuinely forget who, once said that the Mozart opera 'The Magic Flute' was 'a Pantomime for grown ups'.

 This play does not stick exactly to the Mozart libretto but it does have the basic mix of good triumphing over evil, love conquering all and a lot of funny stuff along the way.

Large cast 15 principals plus various chorus parts for young dancers.

Two basic sets but the forest set does need to be large enough for the characters to 'progress' through as the story is as much about the jorney as the arrival.

Warning! There is a very funny attempted suicide scene towards the end when Paul (the bird catcher) thinks he is totally alone. If you would like your copy of the play to be stripped of this very short but very funny sequence please mark your order (No Rope) and you will be sent a copy of the stripped version.
