The Fifth Elephant
by Stephen Briggs from Terry Pratchett
Published by Methuen
Large Mixed Cast
In this stage adaptation of one of Pratchett’s best-selling novels, Commander Vimes is sent to wild, wintry and Transylvania-like Uberwald to establish trade links with the King of the Dwarfs but he ends up trying to stop and inter-species war
On his side though, is a talking dog, a reformed vampyre and a self-made man. You can tell he’s self-made because the stitches still show
Vimes may have arrived as Ankh-Morpork’s ambassador but he soon finds it’s not all golden chocolate balls. Now he’s an escaped prisoner – out in the icy woods, wearing only the gloomy trousers of Uncle Vanya and being chased by a pack of fascist werewolves who don’t play by the rules
