About the Play

Look out, the wild washerwomen are coming! Once upon a time there were seven unhappy washerwomen. They had far too much washing to do and the owner of the laundry, Mr Balthazar Tight, was simply dreadful! So they decide to go on strike. They are so happy with their newfound freedom that it seems nobody can control them. Until along come seven woodcutters, eager to teach them a lesson. But perhaps the  washerwomen will teach the woodcutters a thing or two instead, and everyone might just live happily ever after...

A brand new musical adaptation of this popular children’s picture book.
