Ensemble 360 with
Polly Ives narrator

A new story and a new score from author Jason Chapman and Paul Rissmann, whose works have delighted our family audience for years. Remember Sir Scallywag, The Chimpanzees of Happytown etc.? All eleven members of Ensemble 360 will be involved too.

The dog and cat duo are joined by a whole carnival of animals as they escape from the School for Wild and Dangerous Animals in search of a safe place to call their home. Learn the songs and watch the video at www.musicintheround.co.uk
