Peter and the Wolf update

I've been informed by the Royal Festival Hall that the Peter and the Wolf program will no-longer begin with 'The Lost Town of Switez'.

"The evening now begins with a presentation of two short films. Joyets, directed by Magdalena Osinska, incorporates original drawings created by Osinka when she was five-years-old - giving life to her childhood imagination. Begone Dull Care is an exhilarating interpretation of the music of the Oscar Peterson Trio, painted directly onto film by Evelyn Lambart and Canadian National Film Board animation legend Norman McLaren in 1949. These short films will be followed by the screening of Peter and the Wolf."

The evening begins at 7pm with the world premiere of The Lost Town of Switez, a new animated film from the same creators of Peter and the Wolf, set to an original score by Russian composer Irina Bogdanovich.

Peter and the Wolf starts at 7.25pm. There is a relaxed open-door policy throughout the performance, and food and drink are allowed in the auditorium. The evening finishes between 8.30pm and 9pm.
