The Wind In The Willows Junior

The show is an adaptation of Kenneth Grahames delightful tale of Rat, Mole, Badger and Toad and contains 10 catchy and lyrical tunes. There are 14 main characters, plus many smaller parts and chorus for youngsters aged 8 to 12.

Mike Smith
After training at the Birmingham School of Music and St Luke's Teacher Training College, Mike qualified as a Music Teacher and became Head of Music in schools, mainly in the Midlands. He was for a time Education Manager for Yamaha Kemble and following his time there started up Musicline. That was 14 years ago now and the company that started with 4 works and a photocopier has grown to become a leading source of School Musicals for all ages.Mike, over the years, has written several musicals that have been performed on Radio, Television, schools all over the world and The Edinburgh Festival, several times.
Mike very much enjoys being Managing Director of Musicline but wishes he had more time to write. But as Musicline has taken on more staff recently he might now get the time and opportunity.
