They Called Her Vivaldi
An upbeat comedy-adventure about a sensitive musical-prodigy
About the Show
Mr. E. Haberdasher has crafted very peculiar earmuffs for his very particular daughter Cecilia Maria. Don’t shout about it but Cecilia Maria thinks they make her look fascinating and has whispered her thanks. They Called her Vivaldi is an upbeat comedy-adventure about a sensitive musical-prodigy making a quiet name for herself in a cacophonous world. As our young heroine journeys over cobblestones and canals, we learn about love, loss, the place of salt in our diet and the courage to lose our footing without losing our way.
They Called Her Vivaldi was nominated for the Judges Special Award in the Irish Times Awards 2016 and presented at IPAY 2017 Official Selection in Madison, USA.
Age Recommendation: 7+ and adults of all ages.
