The Concourse in Chatswood will be offering great family entertainment with its hosting of THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR in late June ahead of its 22-city national tour.
One of the most iconic children’s stories of all time, Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar has sold over 41 million copies and now emerges from the page in a joyous theatrical experience, created by Jonathan Rockefeller.
Brought to life with a menagerie of 75 loveable puppets, this critically-acclaimed production faithfully adapts four of Carle’s stories: The Artist Who Painted a Blue Horse, Mister Seahorse, The Very Lonely Firefly and of course, the star of the show – The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
This enchanting Australian-made show transports audiences into a pop-up-like version of Carle’s world that will entertain the whole family.
Carle said of the stage adaptation, “I hope the performances will be enjoyed by many and that the colourful characters bring comfort and joy to all who see the stories… it is uplifting to see such beautiful and cheerful works inspired by my characters! I hope my books – and this show – will inspire you and your imagination.”
There will be just three performances of the show at 10am, 12pm and 5pm on Thursday 21st June at the Concourse, 409 Victoria Avenue, Chatswood.
