THE 13-STORY TREEHOUSE
Who wouldn’t want to live in a treehouse? Especially a 13-Storey Treehouse that has everything, including a bowling alley, a secret underground laboratory, a vegetable vaporiser and a marshmallow machine that shoots marshmallows into your mouth whenever you're hungry.
Yes that’s right. The best-selling book has been turned into an equally brilliant show for the theatre. And you’re invited!
Today, Andy and Terry’s first play opens – except that they forgot to write it. Where will they find flying cats, an invasion of monkeys, and a giant gorilla? Luckily they have lots of props and costumes and some very impressive stage technology.
Prepare yourself for pure theatrical wizardry in this nutty adventure based on the bestselling book from the New York Times bestseller and Children's Choice winner Andy Griffiths.

ROBBERS
A visual, wordless cartoon style comedy.
In a dark colourless world Three Robbers try to steal the only remaining colour in the world. When their precious colourful loot is stolen by the sinister Colour Thief, it sets the Three Robbers on a dangerous and mad capped journey to recapture what is theirs.
Inspired by superhero films and games, physical comedy gets combined with a magical and graphical world. The Robbers is a highly entertaining and surprising theatre experience for children and families.
The Robbers has been made in an exciting new collaboration with Australian theatre director Julian Louis (Artistic Director NORPA and CDP’s 13/36/52/91 Storey Treehouse stage shows).
