🚀 An Epic Kids’ Adventure Lands in Aotearoa!
All The Things I Wish I Could Be – Coming to Circa Theatre this July School Holidays!
Get ready for lift-off, laughs, and loud singalongs! This July, tamariki and their grown-ups are invited on a wild, musical ride with two lovable dads—Jeff and Tom—as they explore all the things they’ve ever dreamed of being. From All Blacks to ballerinas, monkeys to monsters, All The Things I Wish I Could Be is a joyful, high-energy celebration of imagination, friendship, and the freedom to be whoever (or whatever!) we want.
This brand new Aotearoa-made adventure stars local legends Tom Knowles (Shrek in Shrek The Musical, Capital E national tours, Global Children’s Entertainment Awards winner) and Jed Parsons aka Jeff Parsnips (award-winning indie singer-songwriter and rising star of the Kiwi kids music scene).
Packed with hilarious characters, playful chaos, and a full set of catchy original tunes performed live, this “very Kiwi” comedy is perfect for tamariki ages 3+—and guaranteed fun for the grown-ups who bring them.
🎵 Sing, dance, and roar along as Jeff and Tom bumble their way through time, space, and endless possibilities. Where will they land next? The moon? A jungle? A rugby field? You’ll have to come and find out…
🌈 Come find out what YOU could be!
All The Things I Wish I Could Be is a high-energy, big-hearted show that proves there’s no limit to who—or how silly—you can be. An Aotearoa premiere.
