The Legend of Slim McBride and the Lost Tribe is a journey of exploration through the rainforests of South America. This magical tale features some of the wonderful and exotic plants, birds, people and animals that inhabit one of the last great wildernesses on planet Earth, large areas of which are under increasing threat from the modern world.
As the story unfolds, some crucial questions are asked about the future of these magnificent forests and the eco-system that depends on them. Why is it so important that they be protected? How will their preservation benefit us all?
Using a blend of songs and comedy, Scottish Opera’s animateurs involve over 11,000 young actors and singers in performing The Legend of Slim McBride and the Lost Tribe in their own school productions to which family members and other students can be invited. Composed by Alan Penman
Story and lyrics by Allan Dunn Touring Scotland in Autumn 2006 and Spring and Summer 2007.
