Children from Year Six certainly had a piratical style when they performed an end-of-term nautical adventure the ‘Pirates of the Curry Bean.’
Young twins Jackie & Liza Periwinkle, equipped with their treasure map, embarked on a swashbuckling adventure! The infamous Redbeard and his pungent Pirates of the Curry Bean tried to steal the map and kidnap their mother. Then the race was on to rescue her, reclaim the map and find the treasure! The cast took the audience on a voyage of adventure from Old London Docks to the mysterious island of Lumbago in the sea of Sciatica!
The cast consisted of pirates, sailors, tribes people, rats and even cheeky monkeys! The characters were colourful, the songs sparkling and the script was as sharp as a cutlass. Year Six were not daunted by the size of the stage at South Craven (even with only having a chance to rehearse in the space once and just before show time!).
A big thank you to South Craven for allowing us to use their theatre and a special thanks to Miss Cramby and student Grace who operated the lights and sound for us.
Thank you to all parents and carers for your support with costumes and line learning and most of all, for the generous donations given on the night. We raised an incredible £194 which will go towards buying new reading books.
