A train carriage, somewhere outside Berlin, 1929.
Emil has a shameful secret and pocketful of money. Opposite him is a mysterious stranger with a cunning plan. A slice of apple and a cut finger later, Emil’s missed his stop, his pocket’s empty and he is pursuing the suspected thief, Mr Snow, across Berlin.
Joined by a detective crew including Toots, Pony the Hat, the Professor and Tuesday, Emil’s frantic dash across the city takes him to the heights of the hotels, through the lengths of the alleyways and to the depths to the sewers to try and keep a promise.
Celebrating the hard-work and collaborative approach of our youth theatre, this Watermill Youth Ensemble production promises to be an action-packed, race against time to right this dastardly crime, and will prove why you should never trust a man with a moustache!
