Magical and meaningful, IMAGINE LIVE is a celebration of creativity, friendship and our precious natural world. With the help of the audience, performers play and sing their way through the pages of Alison Lester’s iconic best-selling book, and quickly discover there is WAY more to these pages than they first thought.
Spot a leopard, dive with a dolphin or dig up a dinosaur as this iconic book springs into life before your eyes.
IMAGINE LIVE combines live action and animation with digital puppetry in a large-scale, multi-screen performance. Underscored by original music, characters and objects travel between real and animated worlds, responding in real time to audience input. Beautiful and meaningful, IMAGINE LIVE is a celebration of the transformative power of creativity.
Created by the multi-award winning team from Robot Song, IMAGINE LIVE is an interactive musical performance for families…Nana’s are especially welcome!

"After reading her children’s book, Imagine, it was challenging to think how this beautifully simple book for very young children would translate to a 55-minute live show. However, writer/director/ designer, Jolyon James, more than meets this challenge by using the book as a springboard into an exuberant exploration of its ideas and themes, pitched at 4 – 12 year-olds.
