'So brilliant! Love, love, loved it all… the songs, music and dancing. Our little boy is chronically shy and it was amazing to see him come out of his shell and interact with others '

– mother of participant

“Why are you always following me?” Orla asks the Sun. It’s the beginning of a fantastic musical adventure - a sensory game of hide and seek which transforms the world in front of her eyes. Orla and The Sun mesmerizes its audience from the moment it begins with a warm welcome from the cast who interact during the pre-show using chimes, gongs and singing bowls.  As The Sun dances, Orla sings her journey and together they create a paradise of silken sun-rays, a forest, bees and a silver pond, all designed for babies to interact with and become part of the action. The show is followed by child-led free play with the audience and cast.
