Monkey Baa Theatre Company and the Sydney Coliseum Theatre are delighted to bring the magical stage adaptation of Mem Fox & Julie Vivas' POSSUM MAGIC to the Coliseum Theatre, Rooty Hill on 12 & 13 July.
POSSUM MAGIC has captivated young readers for generations and this magical production has already enchanted over 170,000 audience members across Australia. Featuring spellbinding magic, puppetry and original music, Monkey Baa's award-winning team has turned the whimsical world of the book into an exciting live experience for audiences aged 3-8 and their families.
Adapted by Monkey Baa's Artistic Director Eva Di Cesare and Co-Founder Sandra Eldridge, POSSUM MAGIC is directed by Eldridge and features Sarah Greenwood, Teale Howie, Josh Virgona and Sarah Woods.
Audiences will meet Grandma Poss, who loves making magic. She makes wombats blue and kookaburra's pink. She makes dingoes smile and emus shrink. But one day, when danger arrives in the form of a snake, Grandma uses her most magical spell to make Hush invisible. Hush has many wonderful adventures. But being invisible isn't all it's cracked up to be, and Hush longs to see herself again. One problem. Grandma Poss can't find the spell to make Hush visible again. Then she remembers... this magic requires something more, something special, something to do with food... people food! Join Grandma Poss and Hush as they embark on a whimsical journey to cities around Australia to find the food that makes Hush visible again.
Monkey Baa has assembled a top team of creatives to bring the book to life including production designer Emma Vine (Spamalot), award-winning composer and sound designer Nate Edmondson (The Very Hungry Caterpillar), and magic and illusion designer Adam Mada (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child).
For the first time ever, the Coliseum Theatre and Monkey Baa have partnered with magic
and illusion designer Adam Mada. Adam has created all the magic in the show and
will present workshops showcasing the magic. Young people and their families can register
for the workshops, and they will come away with a deeper understanding of the magic and
illusion used in live theatre shows.
