SHOWING TIMES:

  • Fri 10 Dec: 11am

BambinO at Home will be streamed live in to Studio 74.

This unique and colourful work for infants aged 6 to 18 months is a twin celebration of the possibilities of music and the power of the infant imagination.

BambinO reinvents operatic language and traditions for children at an age when their minds are wide open to new sounds, images and experiences. The work combines performance from the show with puppetry and live illustration from children’s illustrator Viviane Schwarz.

BambinO follows a bird, called Uccellina, who discovers an egg. It hatches, revealing a baby bird called Pulcino. He explores the world. Uccellina is initially overjoyed, though passingly annoyed at his hyperactive behaviour! The pair reconcile quickly, elated to have found each other.Uccellina tells Pulcino of the sky and its wonders, and that it is his destiny to fly the nest. Although saddened at the thought of being separated, they are soon caught up in the excitement of his imminent flight. Ready to take to the skies, the birds sing a final duet of farewell. Pulcino takes flight and soars among the clouds, and Uccellina ponders his journey.
