CDP Kids presents
The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show
Created by Jonathan Rockefeller

"and – pop! – out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar."

Following a scrumptious season in May this year, The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show returns by popular demand to Melbourne’s Athenaeum Theatre on June 26 with three performances.

One of the most-read and famous children's books of all time, The Very Hungry Caterpillar emerges
off the page in a masterful theatrical experience for children 18 months+ and their adults.
Created by Jonathan Rockefeller, the production features a menagerie of over 75 magical puppets,
including the star of the show – The Very Hungry Caterpillar – and an Australian cast who bring these
beloved books to life on stage.
Alongside The Very Hungry Caterpillar, the show features three other Eric Carle stories – Brown
Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?, Ten Little Rubber Ducks, and The Very Busy Spider.

The team behind the Australian tours of The Gruffalo, Spot, and The 13, 26, 52, 78 & 91-Storey
Treehouses will excite, educate and entertain new readers and first-time theatre-goers, while those
who grew up with these books will delight in experiencing one of the most popular children's books
ever written. Don't miss out!
