Gerald was a tall giraffe, whose neck was long and slim. But his knees were awfully bandy, and his legs were rather thin. Gerald was not a good dancer. Every year, he dreaded the great Jungle Dance.

Tin Pan Ali, 1st to 2nd August, 7:30 and 2:30 on Saturday
This familiar tale of Arabian Nights shifts to 1930’s Chicago where our hero is a street sweeper, and the thieves are gangsters. Ali sees some gangsters dump a haul of jewels in a warehouse manned by caretaker Sesame.  Ali steals the loot and the tale unfolds as the gangsters, led by Carooni, embark on a plan to find him.  With a witty script and a brilliant score this is an enchanting adaptation of an old favourite. A Newbury YoungStars production.
