The Scarlet Pimpernel

Personally, I adore Pimpernel, so you have my patented thumbs-up! Here is a great site for more information, with a synopsis, libretto, various cast information, CD reviews and sound clips:

Scarlet Pimpernel at Theatre-Musical.com

Hope that helps!

I like SP so much. I saw my school's production of it (this was before I was involved in drama)... it's fun.

It's about the French Revolution.

Well, I must say, this topic caught me off guard, as I'm currently listenting the the Scarlet Pimpernell. In my personal opinion, it is VERY good. I LOVE the music. It is number 3 on my Musical list, so, that gives it some status, right? Yes, go to the Scarlet Pimpernel website and look at the pictures. They are splendid. There's also audio clips, so that's always a plus. So, yes, go there, it is loverly. Enjoy!!
