Errol’s Garden – The Story…………………………………………...…………….…….……..15

flat at night and is often very grumpy. Mrs Sanusi agrees to help Errol, but only when he needs it the most. The garden is built together by the residents (♫ Building Ballet). Errol and Tia admire their hard work but not for long, as their Dad calls them down for dinner and their bedtime. While Errol and Tia are asleep, the garden is attacked! Some gangster snails come and eat all the plants (♫ Munch Munch). Errol wakes up to all his plants destroyed and pots smashed. He is very upset. Suddenly, a mysterious figure emerges - it’s Scary Mary! She has come to help Errol figure out who destroyed the garden. After some detective work (♫ Mystery), Errol finds out that it was some mean snails that attacked his garden! All the neighbours wake up to their plants destroyed and quickly get upset, blaming each other for the damage (♫ Argument). Errol tells them all it was the snails that did it. Errol and Tia decide to catch the snails that did this. Audience members are invited to go on a snail hunt that stretches into the auditorium, to find the miniature outlaws once and for all! (♫ Munch Munch Reprise) Once all the pesky snails are rounded up, Tia asks Dad if she might be able to keep some snails as pets. He agrees, but only if the snails stay out of the flat and Errol builds a snail house for the roof garden. Even though Tia is happy she has new pets, Errol is still upset about the garden being ruined. Tia reminds Errol what Mr Higgles would say in this situation. Mr Higgles reminds them both it only takes one small seed to start regrowing the garden and that they should not give up hope (♫ This is How We Grow). Errol and Tia begin to rebuild the garden and lots of new plants flourish and grow. They invite the audience to dance along to their song (♫ This is How We Grow Reprise).
