Like Me, Like You, with ActNow Theatre - FREE PERFORMANCES for Reconciliation Week

Like Me, Like You is an ActNow Theatre work for children ages 6-8, that explores the different people, cultures and stories that make up Australia today.

Like Me, Like You introduces little ones to the idea of inclusivity, and sows the seeds for anti-racism and bullying prevention. ActNow Theatre’s actor/facilitators take audiences through a series of short scenes with songs, dance, puppets and stories that build their sense of personal safety and belonging, and teach them how to advocate for themselves and each other.

Like Me, Like You was developed in 2018 in close partnership with Reconciliation SA, the Department for Education, Catholic Education South Australia, and the Association of Independent Schools of South Australia.

With the help of an Adelaide City Council Community Grant, we are presenting two free public performances of Like Me, Like You this May, coinciding with Reconciliation Week (27th May - 3rd June 2026).
