W11 Children's Opera bring new production to Hammersmith
W11 Children's Opera perform a newly commissioned opera, The Fizz this weekend, Saturday December 14 and Sunday December 15 at the POSK Theatre in Hammersmith's King Street.
The Fizz is a new composition by Martin Ward, with
a libretto by Phil Porter. The acclaimed composer of the Royal Opera House production of The Wind in the Willows, Martin
Ward has been commissioned to write the score for this humorous modern morality tale
which will be performed by a cast of 80 young people.
Why is The Fizz, the bizz? Randall’s Replenishing Fizz has been made to the same recipe for generations. But what’s the secret ingredient that makes this much-loved cold drink such a hot commodity? And will the Randall family prevent their famous product from being guzzled up by the ruthless Prufrock Corporation?
Come along and have your tastebuds tickled by this sweet, bubbly and quenching new opera. A toothsome treat for all the family!
