The Academy of Barmy Composers - Bridgend Children's Literature Festival

Inspiring a lifelong love of reading, celebrating stories and bringing books to life. 

Yn ysgogi cariad oes at ddarllen, yn dathlu straeon ac yn dod â llyfrau’n fyw.

Discover the world of opera and classical music with author and opera singer Mark Llewelyn Evans.

It’s a funny rip roaring factual’ish fantasy adventure, with a live inspirational soundtrack from the author.

All the world’s marvellous music is being wiped out, just like the Academy of Barmy Composers who created it. Crowell, a cruel character from the past, is the miserably mysterious mastermind behind the plots. Two children, Jack and Megan, from a small Welsh village and a time-travelling talking Trunk… battle to save Prof Peri, Perfect Purcell and Too Hot to Handle etc and our music.

Age guide: 6+
