MERLIN'S APPRENTICE to Open at Brewhouse Arts Centre This January

By: BWW News Desk Jan. 02, 2016

A first glimpse of MERLIN'S APPRENTICE, the new actor-musician musical at the Brewhouse Arts Centre in Taunton is wowing audiences this Christmas.

Marking the re-opening of the theatre as a professional venue, the family musical is taking audiences on an adventure beyond the critical moment when young Arthur draws the sword from the stone, to a dark realm where he must learn to be a worthy king.

The cast is led by Philip Voyzey as Merlin and Emma Whittaker as Morgan Le Fay.

Book and music are by Ian Trafford and Ian Crew.
