Cuckoo Rock

CUCKOO ROCK, David Stoll’s latest musical for children, was co-written with the poet Phil Bowen, and has a story derived from A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM  …

Based on several poems in Bowen’s children’s collection of the same name, the first performances were in Cornwall in September 2013. The show has now been extensively rewritten as performable by schoolchildren aged about 8 to 14.

A dozen of the songs have been collected together with piano accompaniments.  David and Phil have written a new Storybook script (provided free with the Songbook), which makes possible  a very simple performance of the set of songs in a primary school together with a narrator.  A set of download backtracks is also included in the package.  These, and the stand-alone Songbook, are now available from this website.
