Details

A musical based on the novel by Gillian Cross. The Demon Headmaster is one of the most popular children's programmes ever seen on TV. Dinah has just joined the Hunter family. Her new school is also very odd indeed. The children do not play, but just stand around memorising facts, and are neat and tidy and strangely well behaved. To her horror, she also finds herself conforming to the wishes of the sinister Headmaster...Dinah is determined to unravel the mystery and soon joins forces with her fellow pupils to form SPLAT, setting out to foil The Demon Headmaster. Suitable for all ages.
