SUMMARY:The Bogong's Song
DESCRIPTION:The Bogong’s Song\nA Journey into Imagination and Country \nWhat lights the way when you’ve lost your path? A whisper on the breeze. A sparkle in the night sky. The delicate flight of a moth. \nWhen a brother and sister switch off the lights for the night\, they are carried into a world of imagination—a doorway into their Dreaming. On a quest to find the elusive Bogong Moth\, they explore a remarkable landscape where Country speaks through stars\, trees\, and grasses\, and healing is found in the quiet moments between breaths. \nThe Bogong’s Song is a vibrant blend of storytelling\, shadow puppetry\, dance\, and music\, created especially for primary-aged children. As the young characters connect with the wisdom of their ancestors\, audiences are invited to experience the deep ties to Country and discover the importance of even the tiniest creatures. \nFrom the creators Yolande Brown and Chenoa Deemal\, this enchanting new work follows the success of Bangarra’s award-winning Waru – journey of the small turtle\, which captivated over 25\,000 children last year. \nFeaturing the extraordinary talents of Benjin Maza and Tjilala Brown-Roberts\, whose dance\, music\, and spoken word bring the story to life\, The Bogong’s Song is a gentle\, magical invitation for children to listen\, wonder\, and reflect. \n— A part of Sydney Festival 2026 \n— At Phive\, Parramatta \n—> More Info / Book Tickets \nReview \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView this post on Instagram\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nA post shared by Sydney Influencer Shows Theatre Films Events Exhibitions (@chamellephoto) \n\n\n \n🎭 The Bogong’s Song : A Call to Country by Bangarra Dance Theatre playing at The Studio Theatre\, Wharf 4-5\, Parramatta \nIt was my first time seeing a Bangarra Dance Theatre performance and honestly\, I was completely blown away.

SUMMARY:Garrigarrang Badu - Sydney Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:Garrigarrang Badu – Sydney Festival 2026\nJannawi means “with me\, with you” in the Dharug language — a gesture of welcome\, connection\, and solidarity. For more than ten years\, the all-female Jannawi Dance Clan have combined traditional and contemporary dance to ensure Dharug songlines continue to flourish. \nTheir most ambitious creation yet\, Garrigarrang Badu\, is conceived and choreographed by artistic director Peta Strachan in collaboration with the Jannawi dancers. Women from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nations across Australia unite in this large-scale tribute to Dharug Country\, the land where they live\, create\, and dance. \nGarrigarrang (“salt water”) and Badu (“fresh water”) explores the story of Dharug nation\, stretching from the mountains to the sea\, and honours the crucial role women have played for thousands of years in nurturing and preserving Dharug culture. It is a moving reflection on the deep connections between land\, body\, and spirit\, highlighting women’s creativity\, resilience\, and strength. \nThis work is a living continuation of culture\, safeguarding the future of Dharug language\, stories\, and dance. Following a celebrated development showing at Sydney Festival 2023\, Garrigarrang Badu returns in 2026 in full form at the Sydney Opera House. \nPost Show Talk\nAfter the 1pm performance on Saturday 10 January\, audiences are invited to join a 60-minute Dharug Knowledge Holders Panel\, facilitated by Cathie Craigie. Knowledge holders will share insights into the cultural storytelling at the heart of Garrigarrang Badu\, discussing the making of the work\, language revitalisation\, truth-telling\, river systems\, and Dharug lore. This is a rare chance to listen\, learn\, and connect with the voices behind the performance. \n  \n— Part of Sydney Festival 2026 \n—> More Info / Book Tickets Here

SUMMARY:Madama Butterfly - Opera
DESCRIPTION:When Love is Lost\, What Remains? \nPuccini’s Madama Butterfly tells the heartrending story of Cio-Cio-San\, a woman who dreams of a life filled with hope\, and Pinkerton\, a man who sees only a fleeting butterfly – something to capture\, possess\, and discard. His selfish pursuit sets in motion a tragedy of sweeping emotional depth. \nThe opera’s score is nothing short of transcendent: from the soaring heights of Cio-Cio-San’s iconic “Un bel di” to the delicate serenity of the “Humming Chorus\,” Puccini’s music captures longing\, heartbreak\, and fleeting moments of beauty. \nMoffatt Oxenbould’s award-winning production is a visual masterpiece. Tiny candles shimmer across floating flowers in a real onstage moat\, while sliding paper panels reveal and conceal the hidden truths of the characters. Sumptuous\, vibrant costumes\, inspired by traditional Japanese dress\, create a serene yet emotionally charged backdrop for the unfolding drama. \nExtraordinary singers breathe life into every note of Puccini’s passionate score\, guided by the expert hands of conductors Andrea Battistoni and Erina Yashima. \nThis Madama Butterfly is more than an opera – it’s an unforgettable\, must-see experience\, a performance that will linger in the heart long after the final curtain. \nPresented by Opera Australia. \n–> More Info / Book Tickets Here or Here

DESCRIPTION:The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party\nWhere circus collides with comedy and Wonderland—and everyone’s invited. \nThis summer\, The Grand Electric throws open its doors to a world of whimsy as The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party plunges Sydney into a wonderfully wacky circus-cabaret adventure\, running from 3 to 25 January 2026. \nAudiences young and old can dive headfirst into an hour of playful chaos filled with gravity-defying stunts\, eccentric characters\, and laughter that refuses to stay contained. \nInspired by the hit 2017-2018 production Funatorium: The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party – which delighted crowds at the Sydney Opera House\, QPAC\, and Auckland Live – this brand-new 2026 edition arrives with fresh faces\, renewed madness\, and an even bigger taste for Wonderland-style pandemonium. \nLed by director Mike Finch\, former Artistic Director of Circus Oz\, the show fuses top-tier circus skills with mischievous storytelling and gleeful audience participation to create one utterly unforgettable tea party. \n“This show is a no-holds-barred celebration of imagination and joyful bedlam\,” says Finch. “We toss Lewis Carroll’s classic characters into a circus whirlwind—what comes out is funny\, surprising\, and filled with heart. Kids revel in the mayhem\, adults adore the humour\, and everyone walks away with a favourite moment of delicious madness.” \nDesigner Melanie Liertz brings Wonderland to life with a riot of colour\, texture\, and visual surprises\, plunging the audience into a living\, breathing fantasy world. A powerhouse cast of Australia’s top circus and theatre artists brings the storybook misfits to life\, including Tamara Campbell as the Mad Hatter\, Daniel Gorski as the March Hare\, Casey Douglas as the Caterpillar\, Marianna Joslin as the Cheshire Cat\, Mozes as the Red Kween [sic]\, Alicia Rose Quinn (aka Lou P) as the Flamingo\, and Tim Dennis as the White Rabbit. \nExpect spectacles\, silliness and sheer absurdity as teacups topple\, sugar cubes soar and the fourth wall is gleefully shattered. Kids are encouraged to join the revelry—this is a show where giggles\, shouts and unrestrained delight are all part of the fun. \nStaged within the immersive setting of The Grand Electric\, The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party launches the venue’s new Little Sparks program\, a series designed to spark imagination and creativity in families. Guests can also indulge in a wonderfully quirky high-tea service\, complete with treats\, mocktails\, and grown-up cocktails. \nKirsten Siddle\, Creative Producer and Director of Broad Encounters\, says: “We’re thrilled to debut the very first family show at The Grand Electric. Sydney audiences adore the venue’s magical cabaret vibe\, and now they can finally bring their kids along to share in that charm. It’s the perfect backdrop for the silliest\, most topsy-turvy tea party around.” \nScott Maidment\, Director of The Grand Electric\, adds: “We’re delighted that The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party opens our Little Sparks program. The Grand Electric has always been about wonder\, joy\, and theatrical mischief – and this show captures all of that and more. We can’t wait to welcome families into our world.” \nMore info/Book Tickets here: https://madhattershow.com/

SUMMARY:Beach
DESCRIPTION:The Beach\nThe centrepiece of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s summer program is The Beach — an exhibition and all-ages playscape designed to bring people together and highlight kindness\, care and community. \nThe Beach reflects shared Australian values: looking out for one another\, welcoming difference\, and celebrating our seaside culture. It affirms the beach as a place that belongs to everyone and should always feel safe and welcoming. \nFollowing the tragic events of 14 December\, the museum reflected deeply on whether to continue. Director and CEO Ms Daryl Karp AM said the decision was ultimately to move forward\, showcasing beaches as places of connection and belonging — spaces of shared joy\, openness and togetherness at the heart of Australian life. \nFun\, art and memory come together through digital projections\, soundscapes\, interactive rockpools and a towering sand-free castle\, transforming the Lighthouse Gallery into a familiar yet imaginative summer world. Here\, the beach becomes not just a destination\, but a way of seeing ourselves and each other. \nWorks by artists including Anne Zahalka\, Max Dupain\, Lola Ryan\, Charles Meere and Ken Done celebrate beach rituals and cultural rhythms\, inviting reflection on how the beach shapes us — and how we shape it. \nPrograms including babies’ hour\, family workshops\, performances\, late nights\, yoga and life drawing encourage connection and acknowledge that beaches have not always felt safe for everyone. Visitors are invited to consider inclusion\, respect and shared responsibility on the shore. \nThe Beach runs as part of the museum’s summer program 19 December 2025 –  1 February 2026\, 10:00 am—4:00 pm.  \nEntry fees – Holiday ticket\n\n\nAdult: $40.00\nFamily: $99.00\nConcession: $35.00\nChild: $30.00\nInfant: Free\nMember: Free\n\n\nhttps://fun-filled-finds.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/The-Beach-objects.mp4\n \nhttps://fun-filled-finds.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/The-Beach-rockpools.mp4\n

SUMMARY:Murder For Two
DESCRIPTION:Murder\, Mistletoe\, and Mayhem: A Killer Christmas Returns \nIt’s beginning to look a lot like… murder! After slaying audiences across the country – from its breakout seasons at the Hayes in 2023 to a killer run at Adelaide Cabaret Festival and beyond – the musical-comedy hit Murder For Two is back in 2025 with a brand-new Christmas Edition. And this time\, the stockings aren’t the only things getting stuffed. \nBack at the piano (and playing literally everyone in the room) are the show’s original partners in crime: Maverick Newman – hailed by The Sydney Morning Herald as “a rocketship\, shedding and shifting characters as he soars towards the stratosphere” – and musical-comedy dynamo Gabbi Bolt (Spicks & Specks\, Ratatouille the TikTok Musical). Together\, they deliver a festive whodunnit packed with sharp wit\, musical brilliance\, and just enough yuletide chaos to keep you guessing who’s next on the naughty list. \nDirected by Hayes Co-Artistic Director Richard Carroll (Calamity Jane\, Godspell)\, Murder For Two: Christmas Edition turns the classic murder mystery inside out – and wraps it in tinsel. Expect quick-fire character swaps\, piano duels\, candy-cane conspiracies\, and a blizzard of bad behaviour. \nIt’s part musical\, part farce\, part festive crime spree – and 100% holiday havoc. So pour yourself a stiff eggnog\, hang your wreaths with care\, and prepare for a show that proves murder is the reason for the season. \n—> Book Tickets Here \n—> Read Review Here
