From wild motorcar chases to prison breaks, tickle battles to weasel invasions, the script is packed with comic dialogue, memorable characters, and plenty of audience interaction.
The play encourages teamwork, creativity, and character development, while providing every child with a moment to shine—whether they’re playing a dancing weasel, a dashing river rat, or Toad in full washerwoman disguise!
Complete with a production resource pack including costume ideas, staging suggestions, and music cues, this script is the perfect choice for an end-of-term show, drama club performance, or literacy enrichment project.
