Rumour and the Rope Trick
The Red Brick Auditorium, Square Chapel, Halifax
June 2011
Step back in time and step back stage at one of the greatest magic shows in history! Written by the award winning playwright Tom Bidwell, Rumour and the Rope Trick is a mysterious, and humorous, journey into the secret and seductive world of magic at the turn of the century, when the sorcerers of the East meet the magicians of the West and battle to be the star of the show! And with the most mystifying trick of all time due to be performed tonight, what could possibly go wrong?
Performed by the Year 9 group as part of three evenings of one-act plays.
