Step into the enchanting world of Dr. Dolittle, where animals talk, sing, and take centre-stage in a heartwarming journey of discovery and friendship! This spectacular outdoor theatre production, performed by a talented cast of performing arts students and early-career professionals, brings to life Hugh Lofting’s beloved stories in a magical, music-filled adventure for all ages.
When the kind and quirky Dr. Dolittle learns how to talk to animals, he sets off on an extraordinary voyages across land and sea to help creatures great and small, joined by his loyal friends—Polynesia the wise parrot, Dab-Dab the motherly duck, and the shy, yet lovable, Pushmi-Pullyu.
With original songs by Alex Weatherhill, dazzling choreography and direction by Clare Maxwell, with immersive outdoor staging and audience participation, Dr. Dolittle celebrates the power of communication, compassion, and courage and reminds us that kindness knows no bounds.
Join us for a joyous, family-friendly spectacle under the open sky, where music, laughter, and the wonders of the animal kingdom come alive like never before!
Available with this production is a pack of ‘Animal Activities’ – available to purchase with the tickets and to be collected on the day of the performance. It will be full of mementos, information and action to help our animal friends, puzzles and keepsakes.
