A magical new musical fantasy will be given its world premiere on 30 September at Woking’s Rhoda McGaw Theatre.
With music and lyrics provided by Peter Frow who also directs and takes on the role of the evil fairy Scatterjack, Fairyland The Musical tells the story of teenager Flyn (played by Jamie Chidzey) who follows his grandmother (Rowena Bentley) into the fantastical world hidden at the bottom of her garden.
The show, which runs until 3 October, begins with a screening of its short, scene-setting film Away with the Fairies starring Virginia McKenna, Robert Daws, Amanda Waring and David Simeon.
Cast members for the show itself include: Carrie-Anne Lewis, Jack Silver, Suzanne Kendall, Warren Palmer, Esme Sears, Andrew Armfield, Nathan Lister, Jessica Hern, John Sherrington, Kristina Garrow, Lara Falkmer and Shannon Rewcroft. The Blackwing Fairy Rebel Band consists of Stuart Norman (lead guitar/vocals), Windsor McGilvary (drums/percussion) and Alexander Frow (rhythm guitar/bass guitar/ukulele/vocals). Choreography is by Jasmine Lomanto and the fight choreographer is Jeremy Barlow.
Anyone making an online booking for the Woking performances will receive a free limited edition soundtrack CD plus a lyric booklet.
