It allows children to see puppets and instruments in an intimate space working together to create high-quality imaginative environment. It also highlights friendship, respect for older people in our lives and love of animals.

of Umberto Clerici, the Italian born, internationally successful and charismatic cellist. Umberto is a teacher and also currently Principal Cellist of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. He commenced learning the cello at age 5. Sue Wallace is one of Australia’s leading puppeteers and has been conducting workshops for 35 years.
