  • AboutBrisbane Kids Creative was created by me! Ngaire Stirling. I wont pretend to talk in the third person about myself, instead let me tell you a bit about me and how 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came about. At the time the domain name 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for purchase I was a stay at home mum in the middle of a degree centred around journalism and PR. a couple of years earlier I had been contemplating returning to my previous career in marketing management and for a while I even tried. 3 months into a new role and it was clear that I had no passion for my old life and to make the decision to quit easier, my almost 2 year old at the time was not coping with childcare. So, as a family we made the decision for me to return to becoming a stay at home mum. About 1 years later or so.. 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for sale. My friends had often commented on my ability to know exactly what was happening in Brisbane for kids. I had my son enrolled in some awesome activities and we often visited some great destinations. I loved finding fun things for us to doโ€ฆ

Georges Marvellous Medicine | Brisbane August/September 2018

Last Updated: October 10, 2018

PLEASE NOTE: THIS EVENT HAS NOW FINISHED.

QPAC and shake & stir theatre co presents Roald Dahl’s Georges Marvellous Medicine in the Cremone Theatre at QPAC during August and September 2018.

Georges Marvellous Medicine

Georges marvellous medicine

This Winter QPAC is expected to explode in laughter when one of the greatest kids authors of all time presents a truly wonderful show for Brisbane Kids. Get ready for Roald Dahl’s George’s Marvellous Medicine! What starts as just another boring day for George quickly turns into a marvellous experiment of epic proportions! This is a show where you can expect lots of fun, mischief and laughter- perfect for Brisbane Kids who have read the book and those that will one day!

Those familiar with the story already know that on a good day, George can’t stand his Grandma. She complains all the time, she’s mean and she smells funny. On this particular day, Grandma is much more annoying than usual and George has had enough. “George – make me a cup of tea! George – rub my feet! George – stop growing!” Ugh. If you aren’t familiar with the Roald Dahl classic then be prepared for George to concoct a marvellous spell that actually works, and puts an end to her nagging BUT not in the way that George expects.

Fresh from a sold out season at the Sydney Opera House, and from the award-winning team behind the critically acclaimed Australian production of Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes & Dirty Beasts,ย this stage adaptation from the wacky mind of the World’s No. 1 Storyteller and it is sure to be the hit of the winter for any fan of Georges Marvelous Medicine, or Roald Dahl in general, aged 6 years to 106 years!
