‘Extremely new’ play for Canberra kids

Top-quality childrens’ entertainment will hit the stage of the Playhouse in January, direct from the UK.

Charlie and Lola

“Charlie & Lola’s Extremely New Play” is the sequel to “Charlie & Lola’s Best Bestest Play”, which enjoyed a sell-out tour through Australia two years ago.

Both shows mix puppetry, live action and music and are based on the books by Lauren Child and the BBC TV series about the adventurous duo Charlie and Lola.

Charlie and Lola

In the coming play, Charlie and Lola discover that everything is different and not the same. What happens when Lola and her best friend Lotta say they will “honestly and promisedly” look after Sizzles? And what happens to Charlie and his best friend Marv on a Pirate Squidbones adventure!

“Playful, funny and full of surprises, this extremely new play about friendship and adventure promises to be a treat for parents and children alike,” they’re saying.

“Charlie & Lola’s Extremely New Play” at the Canberra Theatre, Saturday January 10 & Sunday January 11, bookings to canberratheatrecentre.com.au or 6275 2600.
