It was really a beautiful narrative that was performed really well and the use of the music was phenomenal. Audience member (aged 16-20) from National Arts Festival 2018

BRILLIANT and thank you for opening up a much needed discussion with our innocent children who think the world is beautiful and parents are liars.
