Platypus Theatre's Music Under a Midnight Moon

Magic, music, and wonder abound as two wanderers discover beauty in unexpected places.

Prepare for a heartwarming symphonic adventure where magic, music, and imagination shine bright! Join the NAC Orchestra and the internationally acclaimed Platypus Theatre for Music Under a Midnight Moon, a whimsical journey that reveals the beauty of sound in the most unexpected places. 

As twilight falls, two weary wanderers stumble upon a forgotten junkyard. But what seems like a pile of discarded odds and ends soon transforms into a world of possibility. With a pluck, a tap, and a shake, everyday objects awaken with music! From the hum of bottles to the rhythm of pots and pans, even a simple saw becomes a duet partner for a cello. Under the glow of a midnight moon, the night air fills with melodies, proving that you can find music everywhere if you only listen.
