BMTC: Kipps Half a Sixpence Musical

The award-winning Bridport Musical Theatre Company return to the stage this summer with their latest production of 'Kipps', the new Half a Sixpence musical.

Flash, Bang, Wallop! The show which reunites the creative team who originally came together to create with Cameron Mackintosh's stage production of Mary Poppins returned to co-create a masterful adaptation of H.G. Wells' semi-autobiographical novel 'Kipps'. This new work has reinvented the musical Half a Sixpence for the modern age with a brilliantly infectious new score.

Arthur Kipps, an orphan, is an over-worked draper's assistant at Shalford's Bazaar, Folkestone, at the turn of the century. He is a charming but ordinary young man who, along with his fellow apprentices, dreams of a better world. When Kipps unexpectedly inherits a fortune that propels him into high society, it confuses everything he thought he knew about life.

It's bright, cheerful, nostalgic, romantic and above all energetic. The costumes, the song and dance routines will thrill you, What a picture, what a picture…… Come and see for yourself, it won't disappoint!!!
