Australia's Favourite Pudding!

"Eat away, chew away, munch and bolt and guzzle,
Never leave the table till you're full up to the muzzle!"

Albert, the cantankerous walking talking Magic Pudding loves to be eaten. He can turn himself into any flavour you want. And he never runs out! He's a cut-and-come-again pudding.

Join young koala Bunyip Bluegum and the Noble Society of Puddin' Owners Bill Barnacle and Sam Sawnoff as they wander along the road, indulgin' in conversation, songs and stories, and eatin' at regular intervals from the Pudding. In between slices they spend all their time defending Albert from being pudding-napped by a nasty pair of professional pudding thieves, Possum and Wombat. Their adventures take them through a fire, a grand procession, a food fight, and finally a mad court case in the town of Tooraloo where we discover Albert's true origins. The action never stops - until the end of course.

This Musical Theatre play for young people about friendship, persistence and the simple pleasures is an inventive mixture of song, verse, adventure and silliness. Come and share a large slice of Norman Lindsay's iconic tale, brought to life by MSTYP's creative ensemble.

The Magic Pudding is delicious.

Very Funny. Albert reminds me of the grouch in Sesame Street.
