What is time? And what can you do to keep it from slipping away all the time? In the imaginative musical theater piece »It Is Time«, an enchanted actress tries to answer these questions. But she can’t catch a break: whether she’s celebrating her birthday, taking complicated measurements or examining the metronomes – the countdown is always ticking away in the background. She doesn’t have much time left to solve the mystery. But she quickly realizes that the music definitely plays an important role.
»Twinkle Concerts« is the series of children’s concerts at the Elbphilharmonie that brings the most successful productions from all over Europe to Hamburg. At times funny and playful, at others thoughtful and reflective, the series introduces children to the world of music in a special and unique way.
