Queensland Ballet: Peter and the Wolf
2 July @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm AEST

Join the courageous young scout Peter as he embarks on an adventure to the zoo in this much-loved ballet with a musical twist!
In a family-friendly tale, Peter meets a collection of cheeky animal characters, including a rascally wolf, an unlucky duck, a clever cat, and a delicate bluebird.
The musical education of young listeners was in mind when Sergei Prokofiev composed this renowned score back in 1936. Throughout this imaginative retelling, each musical instrument represents a character: Peter is represented by the strings family; the delicate bluebird follows the notes of the flute; and the stealthy wolf is portrayed by the French horns. The cat moves in tune with the clarinet; the oboe and the duck are a perfect match; and loveable Grandpa moves steadily to the sound of the bassoon.
