the world premiere of
The Girl who Forgot to Sing Badly
This is the story of Peggy. And the packing. And
the blizzard. And the boat.
Peggy O’Hegarty and her parents were packers.
Each day someone would call with a job and a time.
‘I want 17 foxes in boxes by breakfast’,
said the caller and all of the packers said: ‘fine’.
But one day the phone it forgot to keep ringing.
And then all the boxes forgot to need stuffing.
And then poor old Peggy, she forgot to keep singing.
And she opened the curtains and found outside ...
nothing.
Because all of the people in her city were gone.
So Peggy went out to explore ...
