quest for the whooperdink

A delightful, highly imaginative play. The Whooperdink is a rare and fantastical bird with hidden magical powers. Professor Potterton is told of a sighting of the Whooperdink so sets off with his daughter, Crystal. Along the way they encounter Salmonella, a wicked witch in disguise, her son Seth, cursed into idiocy twenty years earlier, and the Snowflake Maker, doomed to create snow while dreaming of sun-kissed beaches. Find out what happens when the Snowflake Maker transforms the magic snowflake into wishes.


The play was written by A.H.Teacey, and is published by Samuel French Ltd
