This children's theatre production, drawing on the work of storyteller Dr Gcina Mhlophe, strings together short, self-contained African folktales, each one separated by song and dance, into a delightful show. Full of audience participation and warmth, it proves heritage is best passed on through joy rather than lecture.
Peter Pan Jr. is a joyful, visually inventive production that captures both the wonder of childhood and the bittersweet reality of growing up. With a superb cast of adults and children, magical flying effects, and genuine heart, this is a trip to Neverland well worth taking.
Shrek The Musical Jr. is back, and it is as joyful, irreverent, and quietly radical as ever. This is a fairy tale for everyone who has ever felt like they didn't quite fit the mould, told with colour, comedy, and a whole lot of heart. A brilliant afternoon out for the whole family.
The Frog Prince and Other Fantastic Stories transforms young audience members from passive observers into active heroes of their own adventures. This isn't just children's entertainment, it's interactive storytelling at its finest.
Peoples Theatre's production of Matilda The Musical Jr. delivers pure theatrical magic through fearless young performers who embrace Tim Minchin's brilliant score and Roald Dahl's empowering story with infectious passion and total commitment.
