Stealing Sheep created a mass audio-visual, songwriting experience

inspired by LightNight’s theme ‘PLAY’ taking the form of a conceptual SONG MACHINE

where they invited the public to create a 'Liverpool Song for the future of PLAY' to

communicate what PLAY IS to them…

The audience members sent up to six words that were fed into the SONG MACHINE and processed into a new composition to create a spectacle, combining light art, sound sculpting and live instruments performed by Stealing Sheep on the 21st of May 2021.
