Conrad Murray, co-director of Pied Piper says, “One of the reasons we created the show was because we wanted to show off the possibilities of the human voice, as well as the incredible skills of young people specifically from working class backgrounds who don’t usually get access to the theatre. We chose Piper because it’s a story which shows how we as humans need art, we need creativity, and we need it to be in our lives and in our schools. Ultimately, I want people to leave the show feeling like they’ve seen something that’s so beautifully crafted and that there’s hope for the future.”
