Edward the Emu

A Monkey Baa Theatre Company production. Based on the books by Sheena Knowles and Rod Clement. Written for the stage and directed by Eva Di Cesare.

After sell-out shows across Australia in 2022 playing to over 40,000 young people, Edward and Edwina are back!

Edward is bored with his lot. Being the only emu at the zoo leaves him feeling glum and under the impression that the grass is greener in another animal’s enclosure. Convinced that the other creatures are more popular, Edward breaks ranks in search of fun and finds Edwina along the way! Meanwhile, the zookeepers are in hot pursuit to restore order to the zoo. Come on an adventure with the emus as they hilariously navigate their feathered existential crises, seeking to find their place in the world. 

Featuring exceptional, world-class puppetry, an original score and inventive storytelling.
