| A brand new text based loosely on the well-known story of the sleepy Rip Van Winkle. The unpleasant Scrags family are after Rip’s land, and when he falls asleep for a year they attempt to claim it by default. After all, Judge Scrags can make up the law as he goes along, can’t he? Good fun panto in traditional style.

Synopsis
The eponymous hero is a popular figure in his mountain village with nearly everyone. Even his wife, Vilma, loves him, despite his laziness. However, the local judge, Crassly Scrags, desires Rip’s farmland and goes out of his way to devise a new law to get it. Aided by his equally unscrupulous sisters, Cruella and Hydra, he plots to dispose of Rip. His plan goes awry high in the mountains with the intervention of a strange being called Hopscotch. Unfortunately Hopscotch becomes an unknowing ally to Scrags and Rip is in danger of losing everything by default. This will leave his wife and children, Marie and Charley out in the cold. Rip’s friend Nicholas and his son Frederick can be of assistance, if only Rip can escape the clutches of the mad Hopscotch and his ghostly crew.
Cast of about ten main characters with chorus parts for villagers, innkeeper, barman, hikers and Hopscotch’s ghostly crew.
