THE EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES
Shipwrights Theatre, December 2023
Book and Lyrics by Eleanor Colville
Directed by Joseph Winters
New Panto! New Songs! New Nudes!
Welcome to France, 1789. The smell of revolution is in the air! As is an awful lot of hairspray, fake tan and whisperings that the Emperor might, just might, have some rather revealing new clothes….
From the creative team that brought you The Pied Piper, comes the third annual Shipwright Pantomime: The Emperor’s New Clothes. Expect plot twists, high notes and an ensuing court case for indecent exposure.
Let them eat cake? Well seeing as it’s Christmas, maybe a few mince pies.
