Description

Pied Piper is a raucous musical re-imagining of a medieval fairy-tale.

Following the award-winning, five-star smash-hit stage show and BBC film, Frankenstein: How to Make a Monster, the BAC Beatbox Academy returns to the stage with the world premiere hip-hop musical, Pied Piper.

It’s the eve of the mayoral election, and the kids of Hamelin aren’t happy. The mayor and owner of the local pie factory has imposed a music ban, and to make matters worse, there’s a serious rat problem. But, there have been whispers of a mysterious rat catcher in town… sometimes he plays a pipe…sometimes a microphone. Can this curious stranger help Hamelin to find its voice once more?

Featuring a hugely talented cast of beatboxers, musicians and special guest performances from the local community, get ready for an electrifying night of vocal wizardry for all the family.

Tour funded by Arts Council England. Commissioned by Battersea Arts Centre, Gulbenkian Theatre, Belgrade Theatre, and ARCADE.
