This year we have this travelling theatre group working with us again from Monday 13 - Friday 17 November. The production this year is ‘Gulliver’s Travels...in Space’.
GULLIVER’S TRAVELS - Written by Michael McGill Music and Lyrics by Michael McGill
With his ship wrecked and his trusty computer JCN on the fritz, brave explorer Gulliver finds himself lost in space with nothing but an Invisible Force to guide him! While transporting from world to world, under the control of the Maniacal Scientist of Lapunta, Gulliver discovers fighting aliens, arrogant Horse Leaders of the foolish Yahoos, largerthan-life royalty (in more ways than one) and robots – all who need just as much help from Gulliver as Gulliver needs from them! Tune in as this sci-fi spin of the timeless tale of GULLIVER’S TRAVELS will take you out-of-this world!
