An animated songbook

Suzanne Birrell’s Preposterously Peculiar Picture Show of Nonsense

Ten of Edward Lear’s nonsense poems, set to music by Suzanne Birrell and animated frame by frame in cut paper and fabric. The Owl and the Pussycat go to sea, the Jumblies sail away in a sieve, and the Dong wanders the Gromboolian plain with a lamp on his nose.
