Will The Ringmaster excuse Circus Boy from his chores long enough to save the day? Will Draco, the strongman ‘make sure everybody is safety’?

The Time Machine - A Journey Through Time 

 

The Time Machine is the perfect school musical for the new millennium. Join the marvelously eccentric Professor and his equally inept team of travelers as they travel backwards and forwards through time, thanks to the ineptitude of Randall. There is the usual confusion and mayhem as the group enjoys a game of musical chairs with the Round Table Knights, and, accidentally takes Ned Kelly on board as a stowaway. The hilarity of their adventures continues throughout the musical, even though a serious lesson is learnt along the way, about caring for our environment now, in order to protect our future.

All ages love the rhythmic ‘Here Come the Dinosaurs’ and the quirky ‘We Are The Knights’.

Ned Kelly - A Legend Forged in Steel

 

Everyone is a victim of circumstance, even the infamous, Ned Kelly. As related in “The Ballad of Ned Kelly” intermittently sung by the Swaggees, Ned’s story of forming his gang, forging his amour, staging bank robberies, and his eventual capture, makes great material for an action-packed musical event.

Highlights include the rock’n’roll event, “Glenrowan Rock” and the evocative, “Fire”.

Scareee Nights - Boo!

 

The story is a familiar one ... two friends find themselves lost and alone in a strange house. But in the creative hands of John Duff, the odd monsters and ‘scareee’ creature are led by the larger than life, ‘Dr Rock’ and have something to teach us about accepting the idiosyncrasies of others (no matter how bizarre they may be!).

The lesson is important, but along the way we are treated to some great fun, and the best rock’n’roll hits ever to find their way into a school musical, such as the powerful, “All I Wanna Do”, and the hilarious, “Monster Shuffle”.

Treasure Island  - All Hands On Deck                            

 

The classic R.L. Stevenson story is transformed into a rollicking, fun adventure. Eight vibrant songs accompany the voyage, including the John Duff hornpipe, “Yo Ho!”, the ultimate ‘good time’ song, “Let’s Party” and the ever popular “By The Beach”.

The Lone Star Cowboy - Yee-hah!

 

ln the tradition of Robin of Sherwood and Cinderella, comes the irrepressible fun of The LoneStar Cowboy.

This musical is guaranteed to capture any latent (or not so latent!) comedic talents amongst your student group. “Don Pedro” will have your audience in stitches, as will the well meaning, but bumbling, Sheriff LoneStar and his foe, the widely misunderstood Wild West ‘bully’, Black Bart .

The sassy Mary-Lou sings “Don’t Give Your Love to a Cowboy Man”, the first in a whole line up of the catchiest songs ever found in one musical.

Rock’n’Roll Angels - The Christmas Story

 

 

 

 

The musical, Rock’n’Roll Angels, perhaps more than any other, exemplifies John Duff’s ability to compose in different styles. Within this musical we find the magical “One Very Special Night”, the poignant “Mary and Joseph”, the magnificent “Alleluia”, the hectic, rocking and rolling, “Rockin’ Little Shepherds” and the rap song, “Follow That Star’.

These classic songs, together with a gently humorous script (so easy to learn, with all parts prompted by the Narrator), make Rock’n’Roll Angels the ultimate musical for the festive season.

Digby The Bear – Jump! Jump! Jump!

 

Tracey’s favorite relative, Uncle Digby has come to visit. Tracey’s Mum, Pat, is happy for Tracey to spend the day with her brother. Tracey’s Dad, Ron, is not so sure. Could it be because Digby is a bear? Or could it be that Digby’s friends are rather ‘different’?  Ron relents, however, and Tracey has a great day visiting Digby’s old mates, including, Norm, the Giant Hare, Humpty Dumpty, Chugga, the Train and Croozy, the Clown.

Tracey learns about friendships (old and new) in this delightful musical for the Junior School.
