Classic Musicals for Autumn
The Sword in the Stone
This interactive musical based on the mystical story of ‘The Sword in the Stone’ follows the life of Arthur, a young squire destined to become king. Guided by Merlin he has many adventures culminating in him successfully pulling the sword from the stone and unwittingly fulfilling the legend’s prophecy.
We have had some fabulous reviews of this show and teachers have loved the themes of kindness, compassion, bravery and (to quote from their song), the focus on ‘learning every single day’, ‘you can do things if you try’ and ‘believe in yourself’.
With beautiful medieval costumes, state of the art sets, magical puppets and wonderful music by Robert Hyman this wholesome show will continue Image Musical Threatre’s tradition of providing the best touring theatre for primary schools.
The show requires the participation of the whole audience as the chorus and ten children to play small parts.

The Reluctant Dragon
Kenneth Grahame’s much loved classic is given the ‘Image Musical Theatre’ treatment. A dragon is discovered living in the hills and befriended by a young boy, but aren’t dragons meant to be fierce fire-breathing beasts? The townsfolk learn of the dragon and panic asking a knight to go and defeat the dragon. However don’t be fooled by appearances, this dragon is a kind, poetry and book loving dragon but can he be saved and accepted by the townsfolk?
With fantastic original music and an amazing set, the show requires the help of everyone watching. During the preceding fun half-hour rehearsal workshop some children are chosen and rehearsed into their parts while the rest of the audience are taught the chorus songs. After a short pause the actors and children are costumed and the show, lasting 1 hour, runs seamlessly with everyone taking part as rehearsed.
