The Emperor's New Clothes
*** NOW BOOKING FOR AUTUMN/ CHRISTMAS 2024 *** PRODUCTION FOR KEY STAGE 1 & 2
DURATION OF PERFORMANCE 60 MINUTES
The Emperor is a lovely man, but he’s not the best judge of character. What keeps him sane is the monthly Grand Parade at which he wears his newest outfit.
Two swindlers spin a yarn, the Emperor allows himself to be taken in, and it isn’t long before everyone is stitched up. What price will he have to pay? Will the new clothes they make really enable him to weed out the foolish people in his palace? Or will he end up losing his crown jewels?
Hans Christian Anderson’s famous story about a hapless Emperor and a suit of clothes so fine that only intelligent people can see them is one of the greatest - and funniest - cautionary tales of all time.
Wizard Theatre returns with this much loved classic The Emperor's New Clothes, in association with multi award winning international theatre company Illyria

Producing high-quality theatre-in-education that engages staff and students is of paramount importance – this mission drives us forward. The cherry on the cake is that when we do such a great job, we receive multiple reviews testifying to that statement.
Every project delivers a different experience to those involved so it rewarding to hear first-hand what our audience took away with them. For some, our projects can be reflective and thought-provoking, for others they can install confidence and ignite passion. Please take a moment to read some reviews from past and present Wizard Theatre clients.
Great as always!.
