Such big, bold, colourful theatre sets built by Janet Francis.

It was a huge day at the theatre from bump in to bump out. But we did it! Check out these images of “Zietta & The Little Larrikins” at Redcliffe Entertainment Centre! Thanks to all who attended last weekend!

It’s weird how posts about “AI replacing artists” often get more likes and shares than actual art made by real humans.

Maybe supporting artists isn’t just posting/raging about AI. Maybe it’s actually engaging with the humans already creating stuff.

Thank you to our @micomfestival audiences! 👏

This coming Tuesday we’re waking up at 3am to travel to the Lockyer Valley in regional Queensland, Australia to set up and perform in two libraries. We’ll be arriving home at about 8pm. We’ll take the next day off for a sleep in I think. It’ll be HUGE day, but a rewarding one.

THIS TUESDAY (22 Feb) in the Lockyer Valley!
Larrikin Puppets at Gatton Library 9:30am and Laidley Library 1:30pm.
