The eighteen singers of 'Singing Salon' will take you on a magical and fun adventure through the gardens of Limekiln Farm.
When Hansel and Gretel are thrown out into the forest by their exasperated mother to look for strawberries, they find that the forest is full of new friends, including Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk and a Witch...or two! We will meet the Sandman, ’Night’ herself and even Shakespeare’s Falstaff!
The evening will include music such as the exquisite ‘Evening Prayer’ from Humperdinck’s ‘Hansel and Gretel, the playful and tuneful ‘Into the Woods’ from Stephen Sondheim’s famous musical, the gloriously beautiful and atmospheric music of Henry Purcell’s ‘Fairy Queen’ and the fabulous melodies and wit of Verdi’s ‘Falstaff’.
(please note the performance is suitable for adults and older children, there is a shorter performance earlier in the day at 3PM which is suitable for younger children and families)
