Gravity defying show 'rains' at Waterfront
The show featured hundreds of singing primary school children, a narrator, fantastic animation, the Star Singers from Holywood and Malone and a small chorus of singers aged 70 and over from Holywood Fold in the show written by Brian Irvine, the Ulster Orchestra's Associate Composer, with words by John McIlduff.
Combining music, song, narration and animation, it has been part-funded through the Arts Council of Northern Ireland's National Lottery programme and is an Up the Tempo project supported by Ulster Bank.
