Presented by: TEG Life Like Touring and Rockefeller Productions in association with Disney Theatrical Group.
Following sell-out shows at the Sydney Opera House, the Broadway and West End sensation Disney’s Winnie the Pooh: The New Musical Stage Adaptation is coming to Dunstan Playhouse, Adelaide Festival Centre for a strictly limited season from Thursday 17 August - for 4 days only.
Inspired by the beloved A.A.Milne books and the classic Disney featurettes, Disney’s Winnie the Pooh: The New Musical Stage Adaptation was created by acclaimed Australian-American creative Jonathan Rockefeller and features a talented cast of Australian and New Zealand actor-singer-puppeteers.
See Disney’s iconic Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin and their best friends Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, Roo, Rabbit, and Owl (and Tigger too!) come to life in this beautifully crafted stage musical adaptation featuring stunning life-size puppetry for audiences of all ages.
Featuring the Sherman Brothers' classic Grammy-award winning music with further songs featuring the lyrics from the works of A.A. Milne and music by Australian composer, Nate Edmondson, this stunning stage adaptation has garnered rave reviews while being called “Enchanting” (Time Out) and "A whimsical delight with brilliant puppetry" (Entertainment Weekly).
"The music, the spectacular life-size puppets, and the charming performances are the perfect way to introduce (or re-introduce) audiences to live theatre, and this is a must-see show for Winnie the Pooh fans. We are excited to bring the Hundred Acre Wood to Australia so that audiences of all ages can join us for this heartwarming production" says Jonathan Rockefeller.
Disney’s Winnie the Pooh: The New Musical Stage Adaptation was nominated for Drama Desk Awards and OBA awards for Best Puppetry and Best Family Show.
