Maskerade
by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Briggs
12th - 16th July 2005, The Peoples Theatre, Newcastle
There is a phantom in the Opera of Ankh Morpork who happens to write musicals about cats - but can it be the same villain who is bumping off the staff? Maskerade is the 23rd novel in the weird and wacky Discworld series from popular and prolific writer Terry Pratchett. It's a wickedly funny spoof, lampooning Gaston Leroux's original Phantom of the Opera, Shakespeare's witches and heavily parodies Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical. A super show for all the family.
:D Oh yeah. Can't miss this! Ashamedly, I haven't read Maskerade, but I just ordered myself a copy. I have a question for anyone who has read it though... do you think it would be funny to people who don't know anything about Discworld? Would fans of Phantom of the Opera being amused?
