King Midas and his Donkey ears!
This show lends itself perfectly to a self esteem/"proud to be me" philosophy, acceptance of diversty and an "every child matters" approach! Or how about tackling that Greek topic with myths and legends?
Be careful what you wish for it might just come true! Poor King Midas not only has he made the mistake of wishing everything he touched turned to gold - here he is in another fine mess!
The god Dionysus takes pity on the foolish but kindly king and lifts the curse of the golden touch but at a price! Forced to judge the music competition (Ancient Greece has got talent!) between Apollo and Pan, Midas makes another error when the loser takes offence!! Horrified King Midas discovers he has donkey ears! Despite his wife making him a cunning disguise in the form of a rather tall hat - Will his secret get out? Will he be a laughing stock? That all depends on his barber and your children playing the lakeside reeds he trusts with the secret!
An hilarious brand new musical adaptation of the famous Greek Legend with a strong message of acceptance and diversity.
Suitability KS1 (P1 - 3/4 Scotland) or full age range together.
