What readers are saying

Readers generally enjoy the clever adaptation of Terry Pratchett's 'Maskerade', particularly praising its humor and connection to the original Discworld series. Many appreciate the light-hearted take on 'Phantom of the Opera' and the lively characters, though some feel that the essence of Pratchett's writing is somewhat diluted in the transition to script form. Overall, it appeals to long-time fans and newcomers alike, despite some mixed feelings about the depth of humor in certain areas.

Clever adaptation of classic story Humorous and light-hearted Interesting characters and plot Fans will not be disappointed Some humor lost in the script Too much plot, not enough jokes

Synopsis

All is not well in the Ankh-Morpork Opera House.

A ghost stalks the dark corridors, leaving strange letters for the management and ... killing people.

Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg, two Lancre witches, investigate, and are soon involved in all kinds of skulduggery, mayhem and ear-splittingly loud singing.

Quirky and original characters, a labyrinthine plot and numerous witty one-liners make this a treat for Discworld fans and 'uninitiated' theatregoers alike.
