This story was written by Michael Rosen and is a classic award-winning book which will come to life vividly and noisily in a hugely innovative, fun-filled stage adaptation direct from London's West End.
It is a classic hand-rhyme telling the engaging story of four children and their father as they embark on a fantasy bear hunt. Using predictable text and rhyme, children and adults will be encouraged to actively participate.
The Show is [b]based[/b] on the book written by Rosen and Illustrated by Helen Oxenbury and [b][/b] will be live on stage at the Subiaco Arts Centre.
In the book, Helen Oxenbury's illustrations bring the story to life with humour and sensitivity.
Here is a video where you can get to know the story, as told in the video by the author, Michael Rosen:

It is a much-loved children's book which will have catchy songs, many laughs, rhymes, and repetitions and by participating in the show, it gives children a chance to be included in a live show!
It will be the perfect first-time theatre experience for young children as well as lovers of this iconic children's book! The main song is of course
[b]We're going on a bear hunt - We're going to catch a big one"[/b].
It also features the musical dog as they wade through
"swishy swashy grass, the splishy splashy river and thick oozy, squelchy mud", on their quest to find a bear.
There will be lots of surprises along the way, and it's going to be a fabulous story time for kids! They will go on a journey in a fun, exuberant and happy way.
