Get ready to be taken on a magical journey with twins Alfie and Elise as they travel to ‘The Land Of Sometimes’, where four seasons pass within one day. As they travel through Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter and as the story unfolds, you will be introduced to a collection of deliciously eccentric characters and their original songs. From the River Slouch Sling who just wants to make friends, to Little Twink, a mischievous little fairy; and Mrs Blip who likes to make you slip to the Chameleon Catcher and the Willow Tree Choir Boy to name but a few.

Catchy, melodic, sometimes hilarious,...
