You Are The Sun

Thu 29 May 2025

A folk inspired opera for babies and grown ups that explores the magic of nature. 

Combining the joy of gentle classical singing and sensory play, it is an invitation to see beauty in the smallest things and to let plants be our guides. 

Celebrate the gift of nature and help to conjure a world out of breath, water, sunlight and soil in this magical musical adventure for 0 – 2 year olds.  

HurlyBurly Theatre make playful theatrical experiences for babies and adults with classical singing at their heart where babies are free to be themselves and grown-ups have a chance to relax, bond and play. 

“This is the third time we have watched you perform. Precious time to watch my daughter full of joy, safe and surrounded by beautiful singing and ideas.” – Audience Member
