NOTES ON THE PRODUCTION
Barb Scheffler and Michael Harms, drawing on their experience writing the delightful Chelsea Moore Castle and the classically topical Lear Incorporated, and Barb’s years as a performer and writer for Mysteriously Yours, have created another new musical for NTP which begins with a funeral and leads to a mystery. They have mined the G&S canon for more delightful tunes from Mr. Sullivan who will be joined by Beethoven, Bach, Orff and Mercury among others, as we tell a tale filled with reversals and surprises. In the end secrets are revealed and the mystery is solved.
We’re sure you will enjoy it.
Opening in March 2023 at the Papermill Theatre (Todmorden Mills 67 Pottery Rd).
