Cosy Concerteenies – PREMIERE!
Join Concerteenies for the NEW musical story of ‘The Big Dreaming’, for children aged 3-7 and their families.
2 SCREENINGS – 11 am & 12:45 pm [SOLD OUT]
‘The Cold is coming, and it’s time for Big Bear and Little Bear to get ready for the Big Sleep: for bears sleep all winter long, and wake up in the spring. But Little Bear is worried. What if they run out of dreams during the Big Sleep?’
Pianist Annabelle Lawson and narrator Polly Ives perform new music composed by award-winning Paul Rissmann, based on Michael Rosen and Daniel Egnéus’s book. Victor Craven has designed stunning digital animations to bring the story to life. You can join in with songs, actions and makaton signs or just listen and daydream!
COSY CONCERT! This is a relaxed, friendly and family-focused concert.
GET CREATIVE between the concerts, meet the composer Paul Rissmann and digital animator Victor Craven and find out how they make the magic happen! You can make your own dreamcatcher inspired by the story with the Concerteenies Creative Practitioners.
