The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show

Dunstan Playhouse

"...and – pop! – out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar." One of the most-read and famous children's books of all time, The Very Hungry Caterpillar emerges off the page in a masterful theatrical experience for children 18 months+ and their adults. Created by Jonathan Rockefeller, the production features over 75 magical puppets, including the star of the show, and an Australian cast who bring these beloved books to life on stage. Alongside The Very Hungry Caterpillar, enjoy three more Eric Carle stories – Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?, Ten Little Rubber Ducks, and The Very Busy Spider.
