Collins Musicals - Roald Dahl's The Three Little Pigs (Book + CD/CD-ROM): A tail-twistingly treacherous musical

Mixed product

Roald Dahl's The Three Little Pigs joins the famously infamous Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs and the very smelly but loveable Jack and the Beanstalk plus many more in a glittering line up of wickedly funny productions which children and audiences just love.

There are five starring roles and dozens of extra parts both off stage and on – and everyone can sing in the chorus.

Piggy No. 3 is in a tight corner – Wolf has gobbled up his neighbours and now he's hammering at the door with a stick of dynamite in his hand. Who can Piggy call on for help? Sweet Miss Riding Hood, of course – the fearless wolf-slayer. And how is he to know that she fancies a pigskin handbag to go with her wolfskin coat?!

As with every one of these great Roald Dahl musicals, The Three Little Pigs is based on an orchestral commission by the Roald Dahl Foundation. The concert work, from which the schools' musical is derived is by Paul Patterson, and schools can use the extracts provided from the orchestral work to enhance their performances.

To present a public performance of this musical you will need a performance licence. Simply email education@harpercollins.co.uk or phone 01484 668 148 and request a Performance Licence Application Form.
