Beethoven’s 4 Seasons with Wild Words

Date: Wednesday, Aug 23 2017 - Friday, Aug 25 2017
Venue: The Wardrobe Theatre
Price: £7
Artists
Wild Words, Beethoven

Join Bristol storytellers Wild Words for a new and original story for children aged 6+ and their families, with live music from the sublime sonatas, concertos and symphonies of the Master Composer to rustic folk tunes of the day and an unexpected groovy number.

A Ludwig van Beethoven rollercoaster of drama and daring, triumph and trauma, from the shadows of his father to the guiding love of his mother, from losing his hearing to the Ode to Joy. Meet Mozart, the pink wigs of Vienna and a dancing puppet all wrapped up in Wild Words’ trademark magical invention.

Playshop 2pm – Learn a song to sing and make a puppet to star in the show, plus ‘Meet the Instruments’ from strings to brass to accordion (40 minutes)
Performance 3pm – Show Time (55 minutes)
After the show come on stage to meet, ask questions and play some instruments, including hosepipe trumpets!

“An intoxicating mix of sound and story to leave a magical world lingering in the minds of their young audience for a very long time.” – Catherine Freda, Head of Education, St George’s Bristol
