2010 Programme

The Night Zoo

In the middle of the city,
In the middle of the night,
Something is about to happen
in Jamie’s room…

From her window high above the city Jamie dreams of making friends with animals, but her Mum and Dad won’t let her have a pet in the apartment.

Tonight, whilst the rest of the city sleeps, Jamie is getting a visit from the Night Zoo. Meerkat and elephant, orangutan and penguin, thorny devil and giraffe… it’s going to be a jungle up there!

Go wild with the wildlife of The Night Zoo as we join Jamie for a night on which her dreams might just come true.

The Night Zoo is brought to magical life with puppets, dance and animation… and a light sprinkling of manure.

  • In news just to hand, we’re excited to announce two special puppet making workshops to compliment this touring season of The Night Zoo. Places are limited, so don’t hesitate to contact us on 9335 5044 to secure your spot.
