Zense A Cappella

Five students prepare for their school’s annual music show: one loves street culture; another dreams of being an opera star; the third enjoys the sounds of nature; the fourth is an optimist; and the last prefers piano-playing to speech. When a thunderstorm delays the arrival of their musical instruments and cuts electricity to the school hall, the performers determine the show must go on... through a cappella singing. Meeting with acclaim on their unplanned debut, the quintet decides to explore the amazing range of the human voice further, learning along the way the joys of sharing the spotlight through harmony, co-operation, and above all, friendship.

Illuminated by the bright moon and neon-lit buildings, Victoria Harbour becomes a magical world of its own at night, with rainbow lights dancing above the waves and colourful bubbles gliding by below. But which and where is the most beautiful bubble of them all? Rabbitfish decides it is time to find out. The little fish swims past seaweed and coral. He meets Beltfish, Flat-headed Mullet, and many other sea-dwelling friends, each with their own favourite bubble to look after. Finally, he reaches the deep blue sea. Will this be where Rabbitfish finds his perfect bubble?
