Hagbane's Doom
A fun-filled fantasy adventure that makes an unforgettable leavers' show for Year 6! There is a brilliant array of colourful characters, giving plenty of children an opportunity to shine, and the music is stunning, encouraging even the most reluctant of singers to take part with gusto.
Sophie, Josh and Andrew travel through a mysterious archway in their local park and are transported to the magical world of Alamore. They are soon embroiled in a timeless battle between good and evil! Wicked witch Hagbane has stolen the Merestone, which is essential to keeping the forest alive. the children are helped by the forest animals and the rightful ruler of Alamore, Prince Oswain, as they try to defeat Hagbane and her evil army of Grims and Grogs.
The Director's Pack (Hard copy) for 'Hagbane's Doom' includes one copy of the novel by John Houghton, on which it is based, you may order further copies of the book below.
"The backing tracks are full of jingling swirling glittery effects for supernatural moments. Many of the songs tend towards a mood of uplift... the music for the nasty characters is justly more enjoyable, the driving rock of Hagbane's 'Wretched Child' and the light reggae of the wicked wizards' 'Take A Juicy Spider' providing the chance for extrovert 11-year-olds to say goodbye to their school by making a flamboyantly histrionic exit!" ~ Music Teacher Magazine

The children loved the songs, they enjoyed the story but most of all they loved to hate the wicked crone - Hagbane! The whole production was a fantastic finale for our Year 6 children.Flamboyantly Histrionic.

The backing tracks are full of jingling swirling glittery effects for supernatural moments. Many of the songs tend towards a mood of uplift........ the music for the nasty characters is justly more enjoyable, the driving rock of Hagbane's 'Wretched Child' and the light reggae of the Wicked Wizards' 'Take A Juicy Spider' providing the chance for extrovert 11-year-olds to say goodbye to their school by making a flamboyantly histrionic exit!Superb Musical.

We really enjoyed performing 'Hagbane's Doom'! We especially liked the costumes and the songs. The songs weren't hard to learn and sounded amazing when we got them right. We loved our parts and are glad we got them. We found the script fairly easy to learn and very straightforward. We would definitely recommend Hagbane's Doom to other schools.Absolutely Fantastic!

Review by M Waring - Parsons Green Prep School
Just before half-term Year 5 and Year 6 performed the inspiring musical Hagbane’s Doom, a magical tale of good versus evil. Impressive singing and choreography added to a very well-received performance which was enjoyed by the whole school. Well done cast - you were all stars!-
