Despite being lame since birth, ten-year-old Kurt is certain he is meant for greater things than life in his father’s blacksmith shop. Determined to become the Hero of Hamelin, he sets out for the big city to find a rat catcher and save the town from its infamous plague of rats.  But when a chance encounter with a magical Piper leads him down a Road Less Traveled, Kurt discovers that what he chooses to believe not only effects the way he sees himself, but how he sees others as well.

A magical reimagining of the Pied Piper tale, THE PIPER is a story about the power of belief: how it effects the choices we make, the people we love, and our ability to see ourselves in the “other.”  Featuring a wacky cast of characters, including a manipulative mayor, a flamboyant French tailor, a love-struck chambermaid, fairies, rats, and a monster with a grudge, THE PIPER conjures up a musical adventure filled with magic and mayhem the whole family will enjoy.
