Say hello to Broadway! Underneath one of the human theatres, a troupe of theatrical mice are busily preparing their own show, "Broadway Airs", with their very own star the wonderful Miss Adelaide. But then disaster! Miss Adelaide disappears! Unknown to the mice, their diva has been caught (by humans) and released into the country, miles from the bright lights. But the show must go on, and Miss Adelaide embarks upon the long and often hazardous journey back to the theatre. Will she make it in time for her big number! This work presents a loving spoof of life in the theatre, with a engaging cast, a daring adventure and a brave new hero all adding up to a delightful, charming and funny story for boys and girls of 8+.
