2016 - Hamelin

Welcome to the Golden Age of Hamelin. 

The Cheezey Wheezey Cheese factory is going from strength to strength, the dairy is in overdrive and the people are enjoying the spoils of a meteoric rise in the standard of living. The village is heading to the polls and Hamelin’s leading light, Mr Mayor is coasting towards an unimpeded victory at the next election. That is until …. the rats arrive. 

This riotous retelling of The Pied Piper breathes new life into the well known tale and reminds us how we get the leaders we deserve and the importance of always keeping your word. 

“For the Piper visits everyone

At some time in their life

And if you can’t be trusted

Then you’ll find yourself in strife. 

And if you judge the folk of Hamelin

You think they may have erred

Then maybe you should ask yourself

Do you always

Keep your Word?”
