Fishing for Haiku

Saturday, 3rd April 2027 - 12:00pm


Two musicians settle beside a shimmering lake, fishing into the water.  But these aren’t ordinary fish… each one they catch carries a mysterious haiku that sparks a new burst of music, storytelling and imagination.  As the musicians share tales, a warm and funny adventure unfolds, celebrating curiosity and creativity.

Packed with humour, beautiful music, improvisation, singing and joyful interactions, Fishing for Haiku is an enchanting show designed to inspire young listeners and introduce them to a wide range of Classical and European Folk Music.
