THE DRUMMER BOY OF WATERLOO The scene is the yard outside a textile factory in the north of England, the year 1815 or slightly later. Perhaps a projected back drop suggests the building. The stage itself is bare aside from a couple of old crates, some bits of broken machinery and a few rags. These are used to make all the props. The cast is made up entirely of children who have been apprenticed from the workhouse or orphanages to earn their keep working in the factory. Their age ranges from about six to about fourteen. Generally male voices are unbroken, though some of the lower pitched parts may be taken by older boys so long as they fit in with the general group of children in the chorus. Every scene is created by the children in the yard, every prop and musical instrument is made by them from what is lying around there. However, the military side drum used in the story will need to be playable as a real drum. All the characters in the story are played by the children, using their own clothes and rags in inventive ways to change character. In a couple of cases, the story makes it clear when a particular child plays a particular adult, but – otherwise – casting is open and may depend on range. There is not even a requirement regarding gender for minor characters, for example, the Vicar may be played by a girl. However, once a character is established in the story, that casting should not change. Minor characters, including the various children making general comments, may be played by any of the cast as soloists or in groups. The chorus sometimes sings in unison and sometimes in two or more parts; sometimes two parts are constituted as Girls and Boys. Voices are always supported at the extremes of their ranges by doublings or in the accompaniment. The opera can be played by 16 children but twice that number or even more would be far better. The piano accompaniment is organised to be indicative of the proposed orchestration, and is therefore rather full in places. However it may be used in itself for rehearsal or even performance. The occasional drum lines in the score are to be played as written, but the children may improvise on the found objects for their percussion; the orchestral drummer will help them keep time. It is made clear in the vocal score when the vocal line is supported by the orchestra. If the line is in the piano part, it is definitely included in the orchestral score, and this is not marked in the vocal line. If it is included in the orchestration but not evident in the vocal score piano part, it is marked, for example as ‘w. vla’ (indicating: with viola). If it is available in the orchestration for optional use depending on the strength of the singer, then it is marked, for example, as ‘w. opt tpt’ (indicating with optional trumpet).
Synopsis: This is the story of Edward Drew, a boy who was apprenticed to a textile mill from the Poor House to earn his keep. By extraordinary circumstances, he ended up on the field of battle as a drummer boy mascot for the Duke of Wellington at Waterloo on Sunday 18 June, 1815. Edward had never known his father, but his mother told him that he was a fine man, a soldier who had gone off to fight for his country, and that Edward should always be proud of him. But with no money coming into the house and an absent father, mother and son soon became victims of the Poor House regime. Then, at only seven years old, Edward was orphaned and sent off to work at the mill. Life was not easy. The children had to work more than ten hours a day. At first Edward was very frightened by the loud machines he had to crawl through to clean, but after a time he settled down and made friends with the other children who became his new family. There was music in him, and the machines had a rhythm of their own; inside his head the rhythm didn’t stop even when the machines did. Table tops, crates, barrels: everything became a drum when Edward was nearby, and the other children were happy to join in the music. Edward often spoke of his Father and how he would be a soldier, just like him, one day. The factory owners were keen to impress the Parish council that they were good employers who looked after the children who worked for them, so they encouraged Edward to play the drums as the children marched through the village on a Sunday morning to attend Church. One particular Sunday there were two recruiting sergeants in the congregation. They were looking for young men to sign up for the war effort in Europe against Napoleon. Edward caught their eye: he could be useful to them in the field as a messenger. The two sergeants approached the Mill owners and tried to secure Edward’s services, but this was refused. Edward was devastated, as this could have been the answer to his dreams. With the help of the other factory children, he dodged the factory owners and enlisted. Soon he was playing the drums in the Duke of Wellington’s army. At the Battle of Waterloo, Edward signaled the charge for the main battle against Napoleon. He fell on the field, but became a symbol of hope not only to the soldiers with whom he served but also the children of the mill where he had once been an apprentice. Megg Nicol & David Stoll
