"Children's Classic Concerts have taken Roald Dahl's 'Three Little Pigs', and with 'pure imagination' set the very funny poem from Revolting Rhymes to music. It's the middle part of an Orchestra concert of famous classical and jazz music, with some dance, slapstick and sign. All the music was inspired by different Dahl stories.
I loved how the orchestra were all dressed up as characters from different Roald Dahl stories. Matilda played the violin, the Twits played percussion, and a witch played piano. The audience got to join in too. I really enjoyed the physical education class with Miss Trunchbull and Willy Wonka!Â
My favourite parts of the show were Little Red Riding Hood's bang gun, and the medley of Charlie & The Chocolate Factory songs at the end. My dad really liked when Mr Fox stole someone's violin and was chased around the theatre, because it was the music from the audiobook of Fantastic Mr Fox he listened to when he was little.
Although this show is aimed at younger children I really enjoyed it. It was silly and exciting and had some music from one of the best children's musicals ever. 5 Stars!â
Make sure you have booked in for the latest DRAMA CLASSES at Mix Up Theatre throughout Scotland :)
