The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show

tile image

One of the most-read children’s books of all time, The Very Hungry Caterpillar emerges off the page in a masterful theatrical experience for children 18 months plus and their adults. Brought to life with a menagerie of 75 loveable puppets, this critically acclaimed production faithfully adapts four of Eric Carle’s stories, including ‘Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?’, ‘Ten Little Rubber Ducks’, ‘The Very Busy Spider’ and of course, the star of the show – ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’.

A delight for those just discovering Carle’s stories, and for the generations who grew up with his iconic books, this enchanting Australian-made show transports audiences into a pop-up-like version of Carle’s world that will excite, educate and entertain the whole family.

“Literally breathtaking… a knockout success” – The Daily Telegraph

“Bedazzling! Will mesmerize audiences” – New York Times

“A gorgeous stage production for children” – The Sunday Telegraph

“Beautiful, rhythmic, and faithful to the author’s work. A Triumph!” – Time Out

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
