Come on a Christmas Carol adventure with an Aussie twist!

Meet the stingy workaholic bowerbird called Mr Scrooge and join him as he learns the true meaning of Christmas, the hard way.

The show is fun, live and with a large smattering of Christmas JOY!

Will his bower be finished before Christmas Eve? Can he get through Christmas without getting into a flap? Will Mr Scrooge join the flock?

After the show, join in with some Christmas art-making or take a photo with your favourite character from the show!
