Metropolitan Youth Orchestra of Hong Kong (MYO) is bringing the world-renowned theatrical mime duo Magic Circle Mime Co. (MCMCo.) back to the concert hall with the most entertaining, educational, and enthralling program ever!
The concert hall is jeopardized by two impromptu performers giving the conductor a big headache in an educational family concert. A bugle-playing mime who wants to sing opera and a tap-dancing ballerina are so fascinated by the orchestra performance that they went up to stage to join the performance together without invitation!
How would the orchestra and conductor stay posed and teach these two mischievous audiences “the art of listening” and music appreciation?
