Book and Lyrics by Anthony Drewe
Music by George Stiles
This Olivier winning, contemporary telling of The Ugly Duckling Story.
Winner of the 2000 Olivier Award (the British equivalent of the TonyŽ
Award) for Best New Musical. Written by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe (dubbed
"The brightest
hopes for the future of the British musical" by The London Daily
Telegraph), 
"Honk!" is the story of Ugly, whose odd, gawky looks
instantly incite prejudice from his family and neighbors. Separated from
the farm and pursued by a hungry Cat, Ugly must find his way home. Along
his rollicking and harrowing journey he not only discovers his true
beauty and glorious destiny, but also finds love and acceptance in all
its forms.
