With school holidays upon us Wolfgang’s Magical Musical Circus is the perfect show to entertain the kids & get everyone out of the house for a few hours.
Designed to amaze people from the age of three and upwards, Wolfgang’s Magical Musical Circus reinvents classical composer Mozart’s magical music in a skilful and illuminating show featuring Circa’s dexterous daredevil artists and a live accordionist.
Speaking to City Hub ahead of the show’s opening Associate Director Benjamin Knapton told us why he feels Wolfgang’s Magical Musical Circus is such a unique experience.
“It’s a combination of Mozart’s music with the acrobatic body and skill of our performers.”
Due to it’s use of Mozart’s iconic classical music to score the show Knapton also noted that this show works as an incredibly exciting introduction to the world of classical music for young children.
“This show is kind of a sneaky way to introduce kids to classical music. This is a 50-55 minute show where the children sit there and they are listening to Mozart for that entire period of time, so I think it’s a delightful, fun, exciting way to share a love for classical music with young audiences.”
Despite Wolfgang’s Magical Music Circus being designed with kids at the forefront of his mind Knapton told us that these shows will still be highly entertaining for adults & parents alike.
“Some of the best reactions from the show I’ve heard are from parents or grandparents because of the high level of skill that is involved. This show is very fast moving so it really grabs you early and holds you there for the entire 55 minutes. Plus you get to live vicariously through the aww of the children.”
April 20-24. Theatre Royal Sydney, 108 King St, Sydney. $29-$39+b.f. Tickets & Info: www.theatreroyalsydney.com
