A laugh-out-loud, musical adventure for all ages

A family-friendly, all-ages theatre experience blending puppetry, original music and multimedia to tell a whimsical intergalactic adventure. This imaginative show follows a peacock, a chicken, and a pony as they journey through the vast, whimsical roads of Nowhereville in search of identity, purpose and friendship. 

Created by Second Echo Ensemble in collaboration with Midnight Feast Theatre Company this contemporary production celebrates diversity, creativity and self-acceptance. Featuring performers with and without disability, vibrant puppets, and laugh-out-loud moments, this show is perfect for children and families. 

With a rich visual world and heartfelt storytelling, this performance invites audiences into a playful space of exploration and joy. Presented as part of SEE’s 20th Anniversary Season at the Sydney Opera House.
