CINQUIEME ELEPHANT-D.MONDE T24

'A new 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.
