Further details

The Twirlywoos are at a theatre, where they watch the stage manager pressing a button which opens and closes the curtains. When the stage manager takes a break, they decide to press the button themselves, and open and close the curtains on an opera singer who is trying to deliver a grandiose performance, much to her surprise!

The Box comes to visit the boat, and opens to reveal a glowing light and jingling sound. Every time the Twirlywoos try to look inside, it closes again!

Eventually, Chickedy and Chick dive headfirst into the Box before it has a chance to close, tipping it up and revealing that it is full of twinkling stars. The stars fly around the boat, and out of the top, where they light up the night sky.
