⭐ THE FAMOUS FIVE – A NEW MUSICAL ANNOUNCED FOR CHICHESTER FESTIVAL THEATRE ⭐
A brand new musical based on Enid Blyton’s Famous Five has been announced as part of Chichester Festival Theatre’s 2022 season.
The Famous Five – A New Musical comes to Chichester Festival Theatre in a co-production with Theatr Clwyd.
George isn’t happy at the idea of being lumbered with three unknown cousins for the summer, and her devoted dog Timmy agrees. Her cousins aren’t keen on the prospect either. Julian’s struggling to live up to the responsibility of being the eldest; Anne is working out how to make her voice heard; while Dick would like everyone to stop fussing and focus on more important things. Like sandwiches.
But out in the bay lies Kirrin Island, with a ruined castle rumoured to harbour secrets. And it quickly becomes clear that five heads are better than one when it comes to solving mysteries…
Soon the Famous Five are on a daring mission with the future of the planet at stake!
Based on Enid Blyton’s multi-million-selling novels, this brand new musical written by Elinor Cook, with music and lyrics by Theo Jamieson, is an exciting and heart-warming family treat celebrating adventure, bravery and friendship.
Tamara Harvey, Artistic Director of Theatr Clwyd, directs this co-production. Her previous work includes the Olivier award-winning Home, I’m Darling.
The Famous Five – A New Musical has music & lyrics by Theo Jamieson, book by Elinor Cook and is based on books by Enid Blyton.
The Famous Five – A New Musical will play the Festival Theatre, running from 21st October – 12th November 2022.
Brilliant! ! !
