Glen Street Theatre to Present PETE THE SHEEP, 1-3 October

Pete the Sheep is an uproarious 50-minute musical, based on the quirky and quintessentially Australian picture book by Jackie French and Bruce Whatley. It plays at Glen Street Theatre from 1 to 3 October.

Shaun is the new sheep shearer in Shaggy Gully. Since shearing is such hard work, all the other shearers have sheep dogs to help them, but not Shaun. His partner is Pete, a sheep-sheep. The other shearers in the shed are not happy with Shaun and his sheep-sheep.

Following rejection by the shearers and their dogs, Shaun and Pete set up their own Shearing Salon in town where they are inundated with woolly clients, who delight in Shaun's styling prowess.

This hilarious musical comedy, imaginatively told by four performers playing shearers, dogs and sheep, explores the challenges and rewards of being an individual.
