If we turned our mics on the vegetables growing in our garden, what would we hear? Rock and roll, of course! Don’t agree? Come experience this feel-good light and music installation and see if you don’t change your mind. This unique, colourful show is an un-beet-able good time! 

You can wiggle around, dance or just soak up the atmosphere of this immersive, 360-degree space. It features a fascinating see-through greenhouse, fully illuminated with colourful projections. In the centre of the greenhouse is a real rock band that’s absolutely tearing it up: the singer wails, the drummer pounds out a beat and the guitarist shreds. On the surface of this tiny house of sound appear images of a vegetable garden’s cycle, from seeding to harvest, along with bugs and some curious little hands rummaging around in the herbs. 

Your parents might ask if it’s a concert, a play, or a work of art? Tell them that above all it’s a chance to take a moment as a family to watch and listen to life as it grows.

Briefly presented and rapidly sold out as part of BIG BANG 2022, this theatrical concert returns to the NAC to delight us all!
