SPECIAL DELIVERY

Enchanting visual theatre for preschoolers and Years 1-3

14 September 10am & 12pm

“A very, very busy delivery man, whose job has become his whole life, rediscovers the joys of childhood, when he finds a door that refuses to open to allow him to make his next delivery.” BARRY LENNY, RIP IT UP Magazine

“Perfectly pitched at its 3-8 year old target group…delightfully mischievous…beautifully performed…the children were engrossed.” LOUISE NUNN, THE ADELAIDE ADVERTISER

“I’m thankful that my kids are growing up on Patch.” LAURIE WEBB, LOWDOWN NATIONAL YOUTH ARTS MAGAZINE

 

 

 

‘Special Delivery’ is a comic fable about a busy deliveryman, a trolley load of boxes and the world that opens up when a door stays shut. A world of sound where nothing is said, he is joined on stage by ‘his fun side’ and a sound artist who amplifies the stage action with household objects including newspapers, a biscuit tin, a tea strainer and a balloon (to list just a few).

Soon work becomes child’s play and everyday objects are magically transformed – full of wonder, surprise and gentle humour ‘Special Delivery’ is very special theatre.

A comprehensive teachers’ kit to support a performance visit is available. Please enquire upon booking.
