Very hungry Caterpillar takes a bite out of Dubbo
A very hungry, colourful critter is making its way to the stage at the Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) this Friday, and is sure to thrill audiences who will have either grown up with The Very Hungry Caterpillar or are currently growing up with the popular character. Based on Eric Carle’s iconic children’s story, The Very Hungry Caterpillar will be on stage at Dubbo Regional Council’s (DRC’s) DRTCC this Friday 5 March with three shows at 10:30am, 12:30pm, and 6pm.
“Eric Carle has sold more than 45 million copies of this colourful book, and we’re incredibly excited to see it now brought to life with a puppet show at the DRTCC. It is another example of the variety of performances, including puppetry, that is accessible for the community’s enjoyment,” said Manager DRTCC Linda Christof.
