Based on the bestselling picture book about taking a chance
An empowering and chuckle-out-loud story about embracing change — whether we like it or not.
Join Kevin, King of the staying-still-kings, and his friends the wombats, roos, and dingos as they learn that “life can be great when you try something new".
Based on the multi-million copy selling book by Rachel Bright & Jim Field published by Hachette Children’s Group, this brand-new adaptation for stage is directed by Emma Earle (Oi Frog & Friends), with music and lyrics by Eamonn O’Dwyer (The Lion Inside).
