The Rainbow's ChildAbout
A project derived from the eco-fantasy stage musical adventure called
THE RAINBOW’S CHILD
THE RAINBOW’S CHILD is a concept devised and developed by author-composer. Rexleigh Bunyard. It is based on her stage musical script, lyrics and music of the same name, copyright-protected by DALRO.
The original eco-fantasy concept hinges on the highly accessible music which conveys ecological fantasy themes, outlined through creature and human characters within the original storyline, and/or shorter stories derived from this concept utilising selected characters.
