Edward The Emu
Monkey Baa Theatre Company presents
Edward The Emu

9 Apr 2022 to 11 Nov 2022

Edward is bored with his lot. Being the only emu at the zoo leaves him feeling glum and under the impression that the grass is greener in another animal’s enclosure. Convinced that the other creatures are more popular, Edward breaks ranks in search of fun and finds Edwina along the way! Come on an adventure with the emus as they hilariously navigate their feathered existential crises, seeking to find their place in the world. Meanwhile, the zookeepers are in hot pursuit to restore order to the zoo.

Featuring exceptional, world-class puppetry, an original score, and inventive storytelling.

The award-winning team behind Possum Magic and Diary of a Wombat return to bring a unique imagining of two beloved Australian picture books by Sheena Knowles and Rod Clement.

“Monkey Baa’s work makes kids think as well as feel”
