Chamber opera in a prologue and one act. A ghost story telling of the mysterious disappearance of three lighthouse keepers in the Hebrides. This is a mystery story in the form of a chamber opera. The prologue is set as a court of enquiry into the unexplained disappearance of the three keepers from a lighthouse. Questions are posed by a solo horn, which may sound from among the audience, and three officers give answer. Gradually, they move from straight testimony into fantastical imaginings of evil during a 'flashback' to the lighthouse; but then we snap back to the courtroom. In the main act the three singers become the vanished keepers. They have been together for months, long enough to be fully aware of each other's weaknesses; petty bickerings suggest a relationship which is stable, but liable to become highly unstable at any moment. They sing songs to reduce the tension, Blazes beginning with a rough ballad of street violence, accompanied by violin and banjo. Sandy's song, with cello and out-of-tune upright piano, is a thinly disguised description of sexual bliss, and Arthur's with brass and clarinet, is a tub-thumping hymn. But the songs serve only to resurrect in their minds ghosts from the past, and as the fog descends each of the keepers becomes convinced that he is being claimed by the Beast. They prepare to meet its dazzling eyes, which become the lights of the relief vessel, and the three men reappear as officers, met at the lighthouse only by an infestation of rats. They leave, and at the end the last hours of Blazes, Sandy and Arthur begin to play over again. Libretto only. Duration c. 1h 25mins.

UPC: 763628253417. John Parker. Luke 2:8-16.
Original anthem From John Parker & Joel Raney, here is a light-hearted, 2-part mixed original, telling the story of the nativity in a jazzy style that hings at the Caribbean. At the mid-point, a gentle, unison treatment of What Child Is This appears to remind us of the simplicity of the moment. The colorful accompaniment with its distinctly Middle Eastern flavor, calls us to mind a journey through the desert to witness the birth of the King. . . where a stable light shines.

The traditional Christmas Nativity story centred around a grumpy sheep who is not only cross but lazy as well, and has totally the wrong idea of what to expect about Baby Jesus. The grumpy sheep sees the error of her ways when she actually gets herself to the stable to meet the little Boy King - she even learns to smile and never grumps again! The Grumpy Sheep makes a delightful follow-up to Caroline Hoile's ever-popular Nativity plays The Gigantic Star and The Little Angel. Contains six new songs with narrative. Duration: 30 mins. Script available in student book. If you need to license a school/youth theatre performance of this product, please use the online application form.
