Possum Magic
Lighthouse Theatre, Tuesday, May 21 at 09:30am
Based on the book written by Mem Fox and illustrated by Julie Vivas

Grandma Poss made bush magic.

She made Wombats blue and Kookaburra's pink, Dingo's smile and Emu's Shrink, but the best magic of all was the " POSSUM MAGIC ", that made Baby Hush invisible.

First published in 1983 Possum Magic was an instant success with children and parents alike. In 1990 the musical stage adaptation had its world premiere, which was SOLD OUT before it opened. Since then Possum Magic - The Musical is now firmly established as the most successful musical for children and families EVER.

There have been 3 extensive national tours, funded by Playing Australia and countless shorter seasons across the nation.

2013 will mark the 30th Anniversary of publication and over 20 years on stage.

Possum Magic - 2013 - will be the Final Farwell Tour and with the support of the publishers, it is bound to be the highlight of children's theatre for the year. (rodneyvc)
