On 29th April 2004, I was priveleged to be welcomed at the final performance of Pied Piper by Dale Community Primary School, Derby.

This was the first performance of the show (to my knowledge) since the original performance in 1987.

It was a great night, with a cast of over 120! The school did a great job at adapting the musical to their needs. Their dialogue and songs were delightfully interwoven, abd they adapted some songs for their own needs: e.g. by performaming them as a rap or spoken over the backing.

To top it off, they added a great dance number to celebrate the destruction of the rats, which went down a storm.
