This opera for small ensemble has been specially created for children from seven upwards (and adults) by the composer Stephen McNeff and librettist Mike Kenny from the book by former Children's Laureate Michael Morpurgo. On an island lives a strange and forbidding giant – the nearby villagers are wary of him, but is he the reason that fish can no longer be caught in the silver lake? With singers Jessica Summers, Clare McCaldin, Richard Edgar-Wilson, Joe Corbett and Joseph Carey. The director is Harry Fehr.
