For Backbone Youth Arts 2023
There was once a magical tree that had stood tall and proud since the dawn of time and it remained hidden to those who did not know its magical secret… until a young girl named Lily hears a voice. Follow Lily on a journey of enchantment, trickery, and a lot of quick thinking as she discovers the mystical secrets of the First Tree.
The First Tree was created in collaboration with Backbone’s Young Creators, during our Skill Builders Workshops (Age 8-11). This work is a site-specific radio play - meaning participants were asked to gather inspiration, locations and even sound effects from the Seven Hills Hub and its surrounding environment to create their radio play.
