Wolfgang in the Stars

Created by Yaron Lifschitz with the Circa Ensemble

A music-fuelled circus space romp of galactic proportions.

Mozart Amadeus Wolfgang, part time genius, full-time rat-bag, can’t finish his lullaby. The final notes of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star have slipped away, so he builds a rocket and blasts into space to find them, with his best friend–a faithful circus bear–in tow.

On their adventure they tumble through galaxies where asteroids lurk and space dinosaurs roar. But there’s a catch! A galactic glitch threatens to strand them light-years from home. To chart a course back to Earth, Wolfgang learns that sometimes, to find your melody, you need a little stardust...and your best friend by your side.

Wolfgang in the Stars is a dazzling delight for all ages-bursting with truly gravity-defying acrobatics, live video projections, puppetry, music and a heartwarming message of connection.

Because imagination travels faster than light and no good story ever obeyed the laws of physics. Strap in, adventure awaits!

Five out of five twinkling stars – Stage Whispers.
