Plastic Fantastic? is a musical that tells the story of plastic on this planet, from the invention of Bakelite over 100 years ago through its development to the mass production of plastic after the second world war.

It goes on to acknowledge the unacceptable levels of plastic waste pollution we are facing in the 21st century, asking what can be done to improve the situation or if it's too late. It ends with a message of hope and determination to bring change. Helen Graham (author and composer of Plastic Fantastic? the Musical) has kindly made the musical freely available for use.
