The best way to enjoy Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is take someone under 10 with you to see it.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is an interesting show to define. Part musical, part children's spectacle, it ultimately settles as a big budget pantomime. It is a clever route for Roger Hodgeman to direct this show as its virtually non-existent script does little for both actor and audience. Everything in this production of Chitty is big and over dramatized, which for the most part works particularly effectively. There are moments and performances however, that aren't in sync with the collective pantomime energy on stage and these become particularly obvious throughout the show.

Tim Lawson, Producer of CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG and Director Roger Hodgman have been thrilled with the audience's response to the Sydney season of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and are excited to be opening in Melbourne on 30 January at Her Majesty's Theatre.
