Venue: Maitland Town Hall **Patrons purchasing tickets at the door will be charged an additional $3 per ticket** Genre: Childrens Theatre, Puppetry Presented by Country Arts SA Shows on the Road, Dream Big and Madness of Two Claire Della was on the Moon. Around her swirled the stars and galaxies, the comets and constellations. Infinite possibilities. Infinite questions. But the one thing you could say for certain was that Claire Della was on the Moon. Claire Della just doesn’t fit in. The things that make sense to everyone else don’t seem to make sense to her, and the world is a loud and frightening place. So she retreats to the safety and quiet of the Moon, where there’s no one to bother her and no one for her to disappoint. But when her link between worlds is shattered, Claire must team up with Laika, the adventurous space dog, to find a way home or else be lost forever. Winner of two AWGIE awards including the David Williamson Prize for Excellence in Writing for Australian Theatre, Claire Della and the Moon is a tender and beautiful play for young audiences, addressing issues of mental health, depression and anxiety. Using puppetry, music, striking visuals and poetic storytelling, Claire Della and the Moon opens the doors for honest conversation and provides audience members of all ages with a metaphoric vocabulary to positively manage their own mental health.

(this is the tag line) Tardigrades… perhaps you’ve heard of them? Small but mighty, they have withstood multiple extinction periods, surviving boiling temperatures and the freezing temperatures of space. With a surprising cult following, some people call them ‘Water Bears’, others call them ‘Moss Piglets’. Moss Piglet is an explosive portrait of the world’s most resilient and curious critters. Taking young audiences from jelly-filled petri dishes to the depths of a volcano to Arctic glaciers to the moon, the work explodes the mysteries of the wildly weird tardigrade. Playful and thrilling, Moss Piglet is an epic new work about how even the tiniest of things can be the strongest. Think Bruce Willis in Die Hard… but teeny tiny with eight legs… who loves moss.
