ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
Under the Little Red Moon is an online film that combines animation and live action. Created in collaboration with specialist paediatricians, the opera explores the development of language with the help of music, movement and creativity.
It tells the story of the moon as it changes colour from red to blue, before changing back to white, creating different light for the living creatures below. Young friends Lulu, Monty and Tom have to try to work out what has caused the rising moon to change colour in this way, and why it is crying blue dots. It turns out that the rabbits have stolen all the shiny things that make the moon white and the three friends have to give them all back to return the moon to its original colour.
