Introduction
Welcome to Hamelin, the cleanest city in Europe, if not the world. It’s even got its own sewage system – pretty advanced for the middle ages!
Of course, it wasn’t always this way. Hamelin was once notorious for its lack of public facilities, poor education and incompetent bureaucrats.
However, following the election of Mayor Street (helped in no small part by Mr Wim and Mr Pole, his trusty advisors), Hamelin has been transformed, attracting people from far and wide who want to make this fair city their home. It’s such an urban paradise, what could possibly spoil it?
What indeed?
Come and follow the adventures of the Mayor, his wife, his advisors, his townspeople (and their children), the rats that plague them and the mysterious pied piper who offers them redemption. Based on Robert Browing’s famous poem, Rats! is a new musical extravaganza, fun for all the family (even Great Aunt Hilda).
