The Nargun and the Stars
Riverside Theatres, ParramattaJanuary 17-18, 20-21 at 7pm, January 18 at 3pm
Sydney Festival Event
All tix $25
A beautiful show, of Australian mythical tales. The puppetry and the stage settings are a joy to see. It is particularly wonderful to see another ERTH fabulous big bodied production. How such s small arts company manage to put on such large scale works is a mystery, but fantastic that they are doing this.
The special effects and the large scale puppets, which are ERTH's trademark were a joy to watch. Not to mention some fine acting by the three human performers.
It all came together to produce a magical effect. My critical 8 year old, was very taken by the Nargun and despite the cold of the air conditioning and ice blocks for feet, was riveted.
Currently showing as part of the Sydney Festival definitely worth a trip to Parramatta. It is recommended for 8 and over, and is also a treat for adults of any ages.
From the novel by Patricia Wrightson
Adapted by Verity Laughton
Directed by Scott Wright & Wesley Enoch
Produced by Performing Lines.
The adaptation is informed by ERTH’s on-going consultation with the original story owners, the Gunai/Kurnai, Monaro and Boon Wurrung communities of East Gippsland.

Lah-Lah's Adventures
Proms for Little People
Definitely worth an outing with the under 7's. This show finishes on Saturday at the Seymour Centre, Sydney.
This was a fast moving production, very interactive, with dancing, hide and seek, a chance for audience participation. My daughter commented that not even the babies cried, which for those of you who regularly attend children's performances will know that is quite an achievement.
The show is about bedtime and sleep. The instruments come to life for a 4 year old girl. The musician's are top of the range and a big plus is that they can actually act and are part of the piece.
On until this Saturday, if you miss them this time around, keep your eye out for when they are next on. Its a great show for the kids.
