Sydney Theatre Co Presents ACTOR ON A BOX: Aesop's Fables September 29-October 3

By:

Sydney Theatre Company is taking the magic of storytelling to a whole new audience aged 3, 4 and 5 years. Aesop's Fables is a joyful and enticing theatrical ride into these timeless tales of goodness, friendship, determination and imagination, at the Richard Wherrett Studio, Sydney Theatre, from 29 September to 3 October 2009.

Grandma knows all. Grandma sees all. Grandma forgets sometimes and needs help. She can sometimes get everyone into mischief too with her irreverent versions of the classic Aesop's fables including The Hare and The Tortoise, The Boy Who Cried Wolf and The Fox and The Stork.

Combining storytelling, physical theatre, interactions and a whole lot of fun, Actor On A Box: Aesop's Fables, directed by Naomi Edwards and performed by Georgia Adamson, is designed to introduce the magic of theatre to the youngest audience.
