Our online Christmas show: Sammy and the Beanstalk

You may have seen that we're creating a new magical festive show for families and schools to enjoy online this Christmas.

Sammy and the Beanstalk is a new play-with-arias, which we'll be filming to make available online in December. It is particularly aimed at 7-10-year-olds but there will be plenty for our much younger and older audiences too - it's one for the whole family to watch and enjoy together. We are drawing inspiration from classic winter tales, both cosy and gothic, as well as opera, theatre and film to create a thrilling story-telling experience, in a wonderfully intimate setting.

You can now listen to a preview of a song from the show, 'There Once Was A Girl', composed and mixed by Rosabella Gregory, with words from our Artistic Director Robin Norton-Hale and sung by soprano Abigail Kelly.
