The Art House is devoted to introducing children to the magic of theatre, so they are delivering more kids and family friendly shows to their calendar. The latest production Hiccup is from South Australia\u2019s Windmill Theatre, and is a rocking, outback adventure to find the great hiccup cure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With stadium spectacular lights, thumping drums and a heavy dose of camp, Hiccup<\/em> is part Kath & Kim<\/em>, part The Muppets<\/em> and part 1970s rock musical.  Koala comes down with an ear-shatteringly loud case of the hiccups and a sleep deprived camper, along with a cheeky quokka and an emu with a penchant for creating wild inventions take it upon themselves to cure this Koalas hiccups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Created by Jude Henshall and Ellen Steele, two beloved South Australian artists who, after a career of performing in early childhood puppet works, have now written this beautiful show reminiscent of their own childhoods. Set on a balmy night in the outback, Henshall and Steele have successfully built a charming larger than life technicolor Australiana campsite where the action takes place. Paired with a nostalgic, psychedelic rock inspired soundtrack by Ross McHenry, the whole family will be bopping along and singing for days following. Not to mention, possibly finding out to cure the hiccups for once and for all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHiccup<\/em> is about working together and finding new friends in unlikely places. It\u2019s hard to try new things if you aren\u2019t feeling brave, or you haven\u2019t had enough sleep, but if you try your best then sometimes great things happen. Hiccup<\/em> reminds us not to give up, that a bright new day is just around the corner and new friends are just a \u201chi\u201d away.\u201d \u2013 Jude Henshall & Ellen Steele<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Art House Wyong has welcomed Windmill Theatre Company many times before and are excited to have them return with their high quality, professional and wholesome kid productions. Hiccup takes their award-winning formula or their acclaimed early-childhood works including Grug, Grug and the Rainbow, Beep and of course the raging success that was Bluey\u2019s Big Play and turns it up to 11. THE AUSTRALIAN has referred to them as \u201c\u2026 the best children\u2019s theatre company in the country\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHiccup is a winner\u2026 The kids were with them every step of the way, singing and clapping along, cheering the triumphs and lamenting the disappointments, and loving every bit of it.\u201d \u2013 The Advertiser<\/p>\n\n\n\n
