The Owl’s Apprentice
Presented by Ipswich Civic Centre and Little Wing Puppets…
Owls aren’t born wise you know, they have to learn it from somewhere. A young owl named Poot Poot is sent to study at Owl School. On his journey he meets an Echidna, a Wombat, a Kookaburra, a Lyrebird, a Kangaroo and a Platypus who each share with him their own special kind of wisdom. But, will he pass the final test and become wise enough to save the forest?
The Owl’s Apprentice is an interactive show for families combining shadow puppetry and physical comedy.
