Curiosity! Choice! Wonder! What's inside the Wonderbox?
Sensorium Theatre, Australia's leading theatre company making work specifically designed for young audiences with disability and their friends, invites children to roll the dice and set out along a safe, exhilarating pathway into the unknown. Inside a giant puzzle-box of illusions, kooky-carnival friends lead audiences into an immersive multi-sensory wonderland of fantastical large-scale projections, strange tiny delights and infectious live music.
EVERY child's curiosity is celebrated and rewarded with wondrous surprises. As boxes reveal boxes within boxes each child is given the opportunity to find a magical version of themselves. Inside the Wonderbox, micro moments of whole worlds in a matchbox lead into macro universes where EVERYONE is invited to be wonderful!
After more than 12 years of connecting, engaging and captivating thousands of young audiences with disability nationally and internationally with their magical multi-sensory immersive shows, Perth-based Sensorium Theatre continues to break open barriers to truly inclusive arts experiences with their most ambitious show yet. Wonderbox aims to be accessible to all children and every child (and the child in everyone) is invited to look inside the box and find their rightful place.
