Jackie Smith, Stage4kidz, July 2011

Cast: 16+
Running time: About 35/40 minutes
Set: The action takes place in Henry's head. It's all his imagination and, consequently, lends itself to a variety of strange locations. It was originally designed to take place outdoors with the cast creating the set by playing the gates, woods, statues, etc themselves.

The Plot

What plot? Oh, ok ... our hero, Henry, is trying to write a story. Actually, he has a rather fertile mind. It's just that despite his best efforts to stay with safe, mundane story-lines, where he can save reasonably attractive girls from domestic crises, he has absolutely no control over it at all. In fact Henry's imagination runs away with him. Together, and in the company of a few friendly pirates, they go on a perilous mission to find treasure. And then there is Jane, who refuses to be enslaved in the kitchen of Henry's mind any longer, and Doris, eager to be chased by more runaway wheelie bins. As I said, what plot?
