Ages 3+ | Join Australia’s much-loved actress and singer, Justine Clarke, conductor George Ellis and an 18-piece orchestra in a magical children’s concert where a little magpie’s journey from her nest leads to a captivating musical adventure. 

Sharing the power and the magic of a live orchestra with a young audience is a real thrill for me.

Follow Mimi, a little magpie who, after being blown from her nest, finds herself on the edge of a suburban oval. All she remembers is the echo of something grand and beautiful. 

Join writer and narrator Justine Clarke alongside composer and conductor George Ellis as they lead you through Mimi’s delightful adventure. She’ll encounter different animal families, learn how to survive in the suburbs and ultimately bring everyone in the park together.
