ABOUT THE SHOW

Lights! Cameras! Action! Set within a film shoot, layered with live projections, Physical Theatre Company ‘Born in a Taxi’ thoughtfully and hilariously reimagines this 100 year old children’s story by Margery Williams. Please bring your own favourite snuggly toy to the show! This is a show where the toys are in charge on stage and your own special guest toy is a VIP.

One of those rare stories that dare to tease out complex themes of love, loss and change in a way that allows children to connect with them, Velveteen Rabbit is about a toy rabbit who becomes real…but how did it happen?

In the hands of Born in a Taxi, the story is infused with dynamic audience participation, live and recorded music with live
stream video and projections layered into the work that plays with multiple scales that reflect the perspective of a child. Playful, visual and poetic.

A must-see for families and anyone who has ever cherished a beloved toy!

Velveteen Rabbit is created by Born in a Taxi, commissioned by Monash University Performing Arts Centre and supported by Creative Victoria.

“This is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful piece of work”
-Anne-Marie Peard, Smart Arts with Richard Watts on Triple RRR Radio

Show Duration: approximately 60 minutes, no interval.

Wheelchair spaces are available, subject to booking. Please make your booking via phone on 9243 9191 to reserve a wheelchair designated spot.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PURCHASING TICKETS FOR CHILDREN

For events without an age restriction, parents and any children the age of 18 months and over will require a ticket. Children under the age of 18 months will not require a ticket, but will be required to sit in the lap of a parent or guardian for the full duration of the show. Only one child under 18 months per adult ticket will be permitted. Please note that select events may have an alternative age limit for their babes-in-arms policy, and this will be specified on their event page.

For age-restricted events, attendance is limited to individuals at or above the age specified on the event page.

Please note that children under 15 years can only attend a performance at the Clocktower Centre with an accompanying adult.

Parents will not be able to drop off children and pick them up after, if they are to be unaccompanied during the performance.

The Clocktower Centre has a strict Child Policy. Refer to our website for general information.

Unaccompanied children under 15 years may be refused entry, and tickets cancelled. Cancelled tickets may incur additional fees and the purchaser may not receive a full refund.

If you are unsure about this requirement, please contact our Box Office on 9243 9191 or enquiries@clocktowercentre.com.au before purchasing tickets, to discuss your requirements and options.

The safety of everyone is important to us. Please ensure that you are familiar with the current Victorian guidelines for attending indoor events.
