ACSian Theare provides a platform for actors to dynamically work within
different theatre forms and conventions. On 14 August 2008, As part of SDEA’s
CELEBRATE DRAMA ! ACSian Theatre staged ‘The Day I Met The Prince’.
The play is a tribute to the innocence, vibrancy and animation of children and their
imaginative response to their surroundings. Using the beloved story of the little
prince who journeys across the stars to prevent his rose from being eaten by the
goat, ACsian Theatre’s production of interactive physical theatre and text was an
exuberant and entertaining affair enjoyed by cast and audience alike.
Good sirs and ladies, you may have heardOf the little town of HamelinBy the Weser’s banks this little burgIs a pleasant spot to linger inBut this lovely spot did suffer a blotA scurrilous plague of verminNot stray dogs or cats but hordes of ratsDid plague the town of Hamelin!
The Mayor (Baron Saveloy)And his Wife (who ran the school)And the townsfolk all made a hue and cryFor the rats the town did ruleUntil one fine day two strangers cameTo the little town of HamelinA lame young boy and a scruffy trampBoth weary from their sacrifice.
And the townsfolk found that the old tramp’s helpCould make their burdens lighterBut learn from their woe a lesson you should knowFor you have to pay the Piper…
