For a number of years now, Pelican Productions have held Music Theatre Camps in the January school holidays which culminate in a 'showcase' at the end. This year it's 'A Walk In The Book'.
Many modern stage musicals rely on a piece of technical wizardry that becomes synonymous with the show and an audience expects to see it: Wicked MUST have Glinda make her first appearance in a bubble; the chandelier MUST crash to the floor in Phantom Of The Opera; Mary Poppins MUST fly; and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang MUST have a car that floats and flies.
