Based on the much-loved picture book by Julia Donaldson & Axel Scheffler and brought to you by the award-winning team behind The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo’s Child, the characters of Room on the Broom fly into Swan Hill this September following sell-out seasons across Australia.
The witch and her cat are flying happily on their broomstick – until a stormy wind blows away the witch’s hat, bow and wand.
A helpful dog, bird and frog find the witch’s lost things, and they all hop on the broom for a ride.
But this broomstick’s not meant for five and – CRACK – the broom snaps in two!
When a hungry dragon appears, who will save the poor witch? And will there ever be room on the broom for everyone?
Combining physical theatre, music and puppetry, Room on the Broom brings this much-loved story about friendship, sharing and working together from the page to the stage in a magical introduction to theatre, for kids aged 3-8 (and their adults).
“Room on the Broom has been one of our most loved and most popular shows since we first brought it to life in Australia,” says Andrew Threlfall, Director of CDP Theatre Producers.
“We’re delighted to once again have our local team bring this beautiful story to life and to tour it nationally to share with children, families and education audiences.”
UK theatre company Tall Stories’ adaptation of Room on the Broom was first performed in 2008 and has been toured in Australia by leading children’s theatre company CDP Theatre Producers since 2013.
