Prepare for a unique and sustainable entertainment experience where ordinary household junk transforms into extraordinary musical instruments. The Box Show invites children and adults alike to witness a world made entirely of cardboard boxes and everyday items come alive through drumming, dance, theatre, and comedy. This performance uses a playful language of gibberish and rhythm, making it accessible to all ages and nationalities.
The show follows four quirky characters as they turn discarded kitchen items and wheelie bins into the greatest drum set imaginable. Plastic bags become musical instruments, and the human body itself creates unique sounds. This approximately 60-minute performance has no interval and is recommended for children aged 5 and above. It is created by Junkyard Beats, written by Oded Prior and Nigel Turner-Carroll, and directed by Niger Turner-Carroll.
The event takes place at The Concourse, Concert Hall, located at 409 Victoria Ave, Chatswood 2067. The venue is accessible and situated in the heart of Chatswood, making it easy to reach by public transport or car. Parking and other amenities are available nearby.
This show is part of the Chatswood Culture Bites 2022 program, supported by the Live Well in Willoughby Education Campaign. It combines education about sustainability with engaging musical performance, making it both fun and informative for families. The performance features a diverse cast including Oded Prior, Theo Fontes, Tania Chodasewicz, and Lucas Nadin.
