The Planets with Laura the Astronaut
Monash University Performing Arts Centres
Join Laura the astronaut as she meets the characters of Gustav Holst’s The Planets: Mars the bringer of war, Mercury the winged messenger, and Jupiter the bringer of jollity. Laura’s musical journey is going smoothly, until her spaceship flies into a black hole. Suddenly she can’t work out where she is in space or how to find home!
