The Emperor’s New Clothes – YA version – Perusal eScript

$5.00

A delightfully humorous musical re-telling of the Hans Christian Anderson tale, The Emperor’s New Clothes imagines how the frustrated townspeople and Emperor’s staff might react in the shadow of his conceited pre-occupation with his wardrobe and obvious lack of concern for his people. Stitches, Sewphia, Town Workers, Wardrobe Assistants, Laundry Servants, Tango-ing Tailors, and even Giant Palace Moths are in on the plot!  This product is the Perusal eScript and song sampler only.
