A wild and woolly adventure to find that elusive green sheep.

Based on the book by Mem Fox and Judy Horacek
Written for the stage and directed by Eva Di Cesare

The million-copy bestseller
Winner of the CBCA Book of the Year – Early Childhood

Where is the Green Sheep? is an immersive visual theatre experience based on the beloved children’s book by Mem Fox and Judy Horacek. We meet Blue Sheep who loves blue flowers and Red Sheep who loves to cartwheel in the fields, Bath Sheep who loves bubbles and Bed Sheep who loves to bounce… But where IS that Green Sheep?

Blending puppetry and animation, this beautiful production invites young audiences to join our three farmers on their quest to find the elusive green sheep. Co-created with students from Bankstown West Public School, this production integrates their voices as narrators, ensuring the work resonates deeply with young audiences.

Where is the Green Sheep? is a co-production with QPAC’s Out of the Box in association with Arts Centre Melbourne, The Sydney Opera House and The Art House, Wyong.
