​
This delightful musical is an ideal production for schools. The script is clear and straight forward with some lovely touches of humour and the music is lively and pleasant to listen to. The variety of scenes lends itself to some stunning dramatic effects and one of the greatest advantages is that the cast can be as big as you like. From its first performance Orpheus was a tremendous success and people were humming the tunes for a long time afterwards. Altogether a most exciting and memorable production!
