Summary
What’s through the looking glass? Discover an array of colourful characters in Looking Glass Land – from the terrifying Jabberwocky and the dim witted Tweedledee and Tweedledum to the warring White and Red kings and queens. Play a game of musical chess, learn new songs about the jubub bird and the bandersnatch, compose a magical soundscape and conduct and ensemble of Britten Sinfonia players…or are they lions and unicorns?
Age guidance: Recommended for families with children ages 5-9
Duration: c. 50 mins
