  • 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

The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show

the very hungry caterpillar

After performing to sold out crowds across Australia and throughout the world last year, this beautiful theatrical production is based on one of the most famous children’s book of all time- The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. Featuring over 75 magical puppets created by the amazing New York’s Puppet Kitchen, the show will see some of Eric Carle’s most popular books come to life on stage. The show will retell the story of not only the caterpillar that ate his way through the week only to emerge from his cocoon as a beautiful butterfly, but also ofย The Artist Who Painted a Blue Horse, Mister Seahorse and The Very Lonely Firefly; all by the very talented Eric Carle.

Created by Jonathan Rockefeller and directed by Naomi Edwards, this Australian made show is the perfect introduction for Brisbane Kids to the theatre as it entertains the whole family not only with timeless stories but also breathtaking puppets and colourful props.

Recommended for Brisbane Kids aged 2 years and over, this fantastic puppet theatre production will have everyone mesmerized and is sure to entertain and delight not only Hungry caterpillar fans, but Eric Carle fans of all ages.
