THE MAGIC GARDEN
This innovative new work was originally commissioned by Bleach* Festival and is a fun-fuelled interactive journey of exploration and creativity for kids and families.
In this site specific, promenade show, the audience will meet a range of mythical Australian Creatures, observe them in their habitat, be mesmerized by their physicality, and share the laughs as each has a physical encounter with the Tour Guide, Pat Malone!
At the conclusion of the guided tour, The Magic Garden takes a whole new twist as kids are invited to become a creature too!
At the creature-making workshop, kids can transform themselves into their own mythical creature, using a range of supplied materials including cardboard, rope, paper cups, fabrics and bamboo. With the help of talented artists from Shock Therapy and shaped by their imaginations, it could be a set of wings, a mask, fins or a pair of claws.
Dressed as their mythical creature, kids will be invited to bring their creature to life as they participate in a physical theatre workshop alongside the cast of The Magic Garden.
