Disney’s Winnie the Pooh Musical Adaptation Set for Australian Debut
The curtain is set to rise on an unforgettable journey to the Hundred Acre Wood, as Disney’s Winnie the Pooh: The New Musical Stage Adaptation makes its long-awaited Australian debut this July in Brisbane. This critically acclaimed, global sensation promises a magical and nostalgic trip down memory lane, celebrating the timeless tales of A.A. Milne, as it sweeps across the nation touching down in Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth, Hobart and Melbourne.
Audiences can look forward to the delightful sights of their beloved characters Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger, and the rest of the gang, who have been lovingly brought to life through stunning life-size puppetry. The tour’s uniquely Australian flavour is highlighted by an all-Australian cast who lend their voices and talents to this enchanting experience.
The New Musical Stage Adaptation is the brainchild of Jonathan Rockefeller, the acclaimed Australian-American creative. Inspired by the classic Disney featurettes, it invites both old and new fans alike to immerse themselves in a world where friendship, imagination, and love reign supreme. As evidenced by its record-breaking London premiere and rave reviews from Time Out and Entertainment Weekly, the show has quickly become a must-see sensation for audiences of all ages.
“It’s a joy to introduce and re-introduce this heartwarming production to audiences,” says Rockefeller. “The music, the spectacular life-size puppets, and the charming performances are a testament to the timeless appeal of Winnie the Pooh. It’s a pleasure to bring the magic of the Hundred Acre Wood to Australia.”
This widely celebrated production, nominated for Drama Desk Awards and OBA awards for Best Puppetry and Best Family Show, has been brought to you by TEG Life Like Touring, Rockefeller Productions, and Disney Theatrical Group.
