Episode 943: Two Shows, Two Worlds: Zog & RopeDrop

In this episode of MusicalTalk, we head into the world of family theatre and Disney Parks comedy! First up, we review ZOG, the stage adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's much-loved story, currently touring across the UK. We look at how the production brings the beloved dragon, Princess Pearl and Gadabout the Great to life on stage and ask whether it lives up to the magic of the original. Then we head to the theme parks for RopeDrop, a comedy show all about the wonderfully obsessive world of Disney Parks! From the rides and attractions to the fans and the peculiarities of a Disney holiday, we find out whether this show manages to capture the humour of the theme park experience.  We also hear from the show's creators and performers - Jordan Li Smith and Ayesha Patel.   Two very different shows, one episode and plenty to talk about!
