The Gruffalo Melbourne Live Theatre Show

“Silly old fox doesn’t he know… there’s no such thing as a Gruffalo!”

This is a family favourite around the world and I actually know it by heart, and so do my kids! We have read this book together for years and it still never gets old.

After sell-out seasons across the world, including London’s West End, and Broadway, The Gruffalo is coming to Australia for their national tour in 2018 and The Gruffalo Melbourne show will hit the theatre this October.

This live performance of The Gruffalo has been adapted from the Gold Award-winning children’s book and is suitable for the whole family.

The Gruffalo Tale

“A Mouse took a stroll through the deep dark wood” is famous around the world and the tale starts with Mouse on the look-out for hazelnuts.

Armed with just a nut map and a very vivid imagination, Mouse runs into the smirking, wheeler-dealer Fox; an eccentric, retired Woodland Air Force General Owl; and the maracashaking, party animal Snake.

Rather than becoming the main course of their next meal, Mouse slashes their appetites with stories of an imaginary monster friend, The Gruffalo.

But what happens when Mouse welcomes face to face with the very creature she was telling these tales about? Come find out!

The Gruffalo – Entertaining Kids since 1999

This delightful tale written by Julia Donaldson and Illustrated by Axel Scheffler, has been entertaining children around the world since it was first published in 1999.

Now a trio of performers fill the forest with colourful characters and toe tapping, sing-along songs in a live performance that is set to dazzle.

Whether their favourite food is roasted fox, owl ice cream, scrambled snake or Gruffalo crumble, kids will just eat up this delectable tale about the adventures of a clever little mouse in a forest full of predators.

The Gruffalo Reviews

The Australian production has attracted critical acclaim, with the Sydney Morning Herald calling it “funny, charming and smart… brings the house down”, while the Courier Mail said “While your children are having a whale of a time… you will too!”
