Barking Gecko Theatre brings WA storyteller Shaun Tan’s much-loved book Cicada to life this July School Holidays with exquisite puppetry and visual storytelling.
It is the tale of a dutiful cicada who works away in a grey office. Overlooked and unappreciated by his co-workers, Cicada weaves a dream of escape, keeping his secrets hidden until the day something truly extraordinary begins to happen…
Winner of the Children’s Book Council Award for Best Picture Book in 2019, this new adaptation by some of WA’s leading theatre-makers is a story of big ideas and one very adorable little insect.
Barking Gecko Theatre has introduced the magic of live theatre to thousands of children and their families for over 30 years and this brand-new Australian play about resilience, transformation, and the light we all have inside ourselves is sure to enchant the whole family.
This must-see show by WA’s award-winning children’s theatre company premieres at State Theatre Centre of WA from 9-16 July before hitting the road for Kwinana, Mandurah, Harvey, Geraldton and Broome.
