Fairy Tales – Melbourne

Fairy Tales – Melbourne (CODE – 970A)

tony tony

You all know the story of the “Three Little Pigs”, right?
And who hasn’t heard the tale of “The Three Billy Goats Gruff”?
And we all grew up with “Goldilocks & the Three Bears”.
But what would happen if they were fractured?
All 3 of the traditional fairytales are acted out on stage using audience participation, puppetry, song, dance & pantomime. Then all three of the stories are “fractured”. What if the wolf was the victim of the three little pigs stealing his land to build on? What if the troll’s bridge toll was ignored by the three Billy Goats Gruff? Could there be the story of the Three Goldilocks whose house was taken over by a bear?
Anything can happen and the students get to choose. Game show wheels will spin on stage, the audience calls the shots, & just about anything goes in this hilarious reworking of traditional fairytales.

The characters all perform their own song & dance numbers. With full performer question time at the end of the show.

The Puppet Tour – Melbourne(CODE – 14R)

fest-rock

‘Clem’, the the smallest rock star with the biggest ego  runs into difficulties with his concert when the roadies and band fail to show up. An audience volunteer is called to help out, saves the day, and becomes the real star of the show.

The Puppet Tour is a  scaled down interactive Rock N’ Roll  Puppet Show. It comes complete with digital lighting, miniature mirror ball, and a host of other special effects throughout.

This unique show, developed over 20 years, brings intrigue, laughter and gives new meaning to ‘live puppetry’, proving that quality, not quantity, is what it’s all about! The show can be tailored for young audiences or adult audiences and requires a volunteer aged 10 years or older.
