This children's opera, created by the young and talented British composer Joanna Lee, is the story of a boy who finds a toy plane in a closet and decides to explore the universe. When his aircraft runs out of fuel, the boy is forced to land on the moon, where he meets a martian who befriends him. The martian and the little human must help each other to find the way to go back home. The libretto by Rory Mullarkey is based on the picture book The Way Back Home by Oliver Jeffers. The opera premiered at Young Vic in 2014.
