Summer Isle

In a new concept launched in 2017, Musical Theatre Triple Threat students working with a professional production team take two highly original plays and adapt them into first-time, small-scale musicals, using curated songs and original orchestrations. The two creative teams encourages a festival atmosphere with the campus venue as its vibrant hub. Expect laugh out loud hilarity to moments of excruciating poignancy. Adapted and Directed once again by Ian Summers (The Life, Cinderella, Wonderful World of Dissocia, The) and Emma Kilbey (Footloose, Loveplay, Murder, Mayhem & Masque).

In ‘Summer Isle' a lone policeman's search for a missing child on a remote Scottish island becomes a terrifying nightmare as he uncovers a cult based on strange sexual rituals and human sacrifice. Fear, Farce, Fo Fum! You will smell the blood in these iconic, peculiarly British dramas! Summer Isle is loosely based on The Wicker Man by Robin Hardy and Anthony Shaffer and Ritual by David Pinner and the music of Paul Giovanni.
