Let's Build a Town
🎼In Let’s Build a Town (1930), by composer Paul Hindemith, children are invited to imagine a city where there are no adults and they are in charge. What might their ideal town look like?
Join us this Friday to find out. Young people from Oxford will reimagine scenes from the original piece, blending them with new, co-created music and theatre that explores their vision of what it means to build a town today.
