Inspired by the motion picture “Forbidden Planet” courtesy of Turner Entertainment. This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Hal Leonard Australia on behalf of Joseph Weinberger Ltd

Captain Tempest and his crew welcome us aboard a routine survey spaceship flight. Soon after take-off the ship crash lands on an uncharted planet - Dillyria. The Science Officer leaves the ship but all is not as it seems - there's somebody on the planet, a scientist by the name of Prospero.

Dillyria must also have been a product of his imagination, for the entire planet starts to crumble.

The crew struggle to get the spaceship back in the air and..........

Featuring hits like Wipe Out, Great Balls of Fire, Teenager in Love, The Young Ones, Only the Lonely, Don’t let me be Misunderstood and loads more!
