Children aged between 6 and 11 are invited along to the
Discovery Centre with a parent, to take part in Uluzulualia – Your Vivacious Voice! a unique and highly engrossing theatre
performance for children to explore and access the creative, scientific and
musical potential of their own voices. The show is not about singing talent,
but will take children on a journey using performance, multimedia techniques
and mobile installations and soundscape guided by professional actors.
Groups of children and accompanying adults are invited into
two distinct performance hubs inside the Discovery Centre. With the creative
guidance of the actors, the children’s own voices contribute to the piece as they
are encouraged to enter the two worlds, explore their own voices and make lots
of sounds within the context of the performance.
Uluzulualia
presents a unique opportunity for children to learn through a fun and vibrant
performance and gives them creative ways of exploring the anatomy of the
voicing body: the differences between
human and animal voicing; vibration and sound; and musical concepts like volume
(dynamics), pitch, improvisation, pulse and rhythm.
The show has been devised with the collaboration of Theatre
Royal Winchester, by Yvon Bonenfant who is both the lead artist on the piece
and a Reader in Performing Arts at the University of Winchester. His works have
been performed in 10 countries world -wide in the past 10 years, reaching
audiences in imaginative and exciting ways by inviting them right inside the
audio-visual experience.
Uluzuzulalia is
playing at Winchester Discovery Centre from Sat 1 – Tues 4 Feb at 11.30am &
2.30pm (Sat & Sun) and 10.30am & 1.00pm (Mon & Tues). Tickets: For further information or to book tickets, please
