Bryony Marks The Happiness Box
As well as introducing audiences to the sounds of the orchestra, The Happiness Box's themes are timeless and universal; the value of kindness, resilience, industriousness, humour, courage and most importantly, the value of friendship.
Written for Changi Prison's interned children in 1942 by Australian POW David Griffin and adapted by composer Bryony Marks, The Happiness Box tells the story of three best friends, a lizard, a monkey and a frog who embark on a magical journey.
