Live at the Empire is a musical, written for the pupils of Ilkley Grammar School. It was premiered in March 2006 and was very well received.

It has a lively script with strong characters and good sub plots. There is an overture and 15 original songs as well as a flexible orchestral score.

The music is on Sibelius files and the script in "Word"so it can be easily reproduced by any other group.

I am keen to see the show used elsewhere as it is ideal for adaptation. The Sibelius files make it possible to do anything from transposition to orchestration with ease and the script can be reprinted at will.

There is also a DVD of our production to help with the staging.
