Bubblewrap & Boxes was first performed as part of La Mama‟s Explorations Season in Melbourne 2008 and has since played Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2009, Melbourne Fringe 2009, where it won "Best School Holiday Show‟ award, Dunedin Fringe 2010, Adelaide Fringe 2010 and 2011, and a range of Metropolitan and Regional Arts Centres and Schools.
This gorgeous kids show is set in the lost mailroom, a strange, dusty 'nowhere land‟ where homeless parcels and undeliverable letters live. A simple but ingenious set of cardboard boxes sets the scene. There is a highly-strung mailroom dweller, intent on keeping his boxes in order, and a free-spirited new arrival whose sense of adventure will leave you gasping for breath. The discovery of a strange parcel throws the oddly delightful duo into a quandary. How will they deal with this unexpected development?
This story about how to live bravely in a big world is told using acrobatics, clowning and a whole lot of cardboard boxes.
