The Wind Singer is an Epic Family Fantasy Musical Adventure about a fierce girl, in a dystopian world, who sets out on a quest to find the Wind Singer’s lost voice and free her people from a cruel regime. Kestrel Hath kicks back- she has the kind of “girl-power” and intelligence that Lyra Belacqua and Katniss Everdeen weald. On the fearful journey she takes her twin bother Bowman and a strange outcast boy called Mumpo -everyone’s strength and ingenuity is tested. This is a “Heart wringing celebration of Love” (Sunday Times) where the bond of family, friendship and mutual support win over cruelty and rigidity. The Wind Singer has an electro-acoustic score featuring an array of percussion, tuned wine glasses, musical saw and an owl. We want to explore ideas around aerial silk dance, puppetry and choirs. Ideally a Cast of 15 and Band of 8.

  • July – William Nicholson
    2007/July WILLIAM NICHOLSON – Publishing News It’s not often that a PN interviewee tells you that he’s just come from a script meeting for a new movie, or that said interviewee has won two BAFTAs, a Tony Award for his play Shadowlands and has twice been nominated for an Oscar, the second time for the script for Gladiator. But then William Nicholson has, as they say, been there and done that in more ways than one. At eight years old he was baptised in a Nigerian leper colony, he was educated by Benedictine monks, and is an alumnus of Christ’s College, Cambridge, he started his working life as a documentary filmmaker at the BBC and his debut novel, The Wind Singer, won the Nestlé Children’s Book Prize in 2000. “I pay the bills by writing movies and I’m in the middle of one that starts shooting in September,” explains Nicholson. “It’s called Hippie Hippie Shake and is about the Oz trials…it’s really about Richard Neville and his girlfriend, and how do you have a love affair at a time of free love?” If none of the previous sentence makes any kind of sense, you either have a bad memory or are too young to have lived through the 60s; either way you will, I’m afraid, have to go to Google or Wikipedia if you want to know more. The Wind on Fire trilogy was an epic fantasy quest that began life as something of a polemic against modern education, one book which turned into something much bigger, with a story arc that has its own cosmology.

Language, narrative technique and character portrayal all come into play here. Another way to give the reader a sense of what is to come, is by making use of and alluding to other texts, i.e. intertextuality. In order for this to have the desired effect, though, it must be a work the reader is familiar with. And

    Books To Read: Current Edition: 2017.01 © J Vaughan A list of recommendations… Compiled by John Vaughan Edition: February 2017 © John Vaughan Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! 1 Books To Read: Current Edition: 2017.01 © J Vaughan Books to Read Introduction This list is compiled based on my years as a teacher, encouraging my students into reading. The books or authors I have listed are ones which I have either had a lot of success with over the years as a teacher, or have been read by my students and recommended to me. The titles are targeted at the Year 7-8 age group, but can definitely be enjoyed by older (and sometimes younger) readers as well! I have entered them into the list because they have already proved themselves successful, and also because they are a “good read”, but please remember this is just ONE person's preferences and opinions, as are all book reviews. Everyone’s taste in reading is different, so I recommend you try a wide range of titles & authors. Some parents may disagree with my choices based on content, subject matter or suitability for level. That's okay with me! ☞ If you are in doubt about a book, read it yourself before offering it to your child! I have read all these titles myself (and yes, I enjoyed them - they wouldn't be in this list, otherwise!) Please note that I will not read a book to a class without reading it myself first, just to check content. Having said that, there are some books in the list I would not read to classes because of the content, but I believe are suitable for home reading.
