About this Event

Embark on a very special and go wild with interactive musical film screening of Where the Wild Things Are (1973).

Professional musicians lead children and adults to become an orchestra creating the sound effects and music from this much-loved animated classic using instruments, hands and voices.

Start with a warm-up climb into the forest canopy using hands and voices before children and adults team up with instruments – turtle drums, lyre harp, zaphir chimes, gong, bird flutes, ocarinas and bamboo canes – to create a live score to the mysterious island and inhabitants that Max encounters.

This event is aimed at children aged 4 to 12.
