This brilliantly inventive visualisation of Prokofiev's beloved musical tale features Sting, Claudio Abbado, members of London's celebrated Theatre de Complicite, and some fantastic Spitting Image puppetry.
"Sting's knack for getting into character as well as his talent for creating voices lends an appropriately cartoonish atmosphere to the proceedings...With Abbado's playfully dramatic conducting...a 'Peter' That's fun for kids as well as adults". (Classics Today)
