Picture

School’s  Pack - €30

Cara’s favorite bedtime story has always been Cinderella and, since her Mother died she has been waiting for a fairy godmother to come and solve all of her problems.
Hiroto hasn’t read a bedtime story for years, he is too busy every night elbow deep in the washing up to even think about being rescued.
 
Wrap up warm this winter and join us on the glittering streets of Paris in December where we discover that fairytales rarely work out the way you expect, that sometime the purple velvet jacket fits and that the best use of pumpkins can sometimes be pumpkin pies!
​
Following the success of The Snow Queen  and The Little Robber Girl, BrokenCrow returns with an original audio drama for children, with a set of illustrated note cards to accompany the series arriving in the post.
The creative team from the previous year’s runaway success series returns to bring another unique children’s audio series to you in the comfort of your home. Created for children 7 years+, Seeking Cinderella features original music composed and created by Anthony O’Dwyer. This year’s illustrated package will feature original illustrations from Dermot Flynn, Debora Adichi, Kate Escolin and Fergal O’Connor.
 
Seeking Cinderella will be available to purchase and the four audio episodes will be available from Monday the 21st of November, an ideal Christmas present for the children in your life both near and far away.
The pack contains four beautifully illustrated, specially commissioned cards and a link to the audio series.​

This project is the culmination of three years of support for Deirdre as Artist in Residence in Garter Lane Arts Centre funded by The Arts Council and Waterford City and County Council Arts Office. Having a creative home in Waterford has been invaluable to Deirdre as an artist and she really wants to thank Sile, Bríd, Sandra, Michael, Mary Clare and all at Garter Lane for their support.
Support also came from Creative Waterford, Waterford City & County Arts Office, The Everyman, Winterval, Waterford Libraries, the Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris and Draíocht Blanchardstown. Thank you.
And to you the listener, thanks for joining us in Paris. We made this just for you.
