The Cat In The Hat heads to Caloundra

The Cat In The Hat is heading to Caloundra these school holidays.

The much-loved children’s phenomenon will be performing at The Events Centre, Caloundra on Friday 30 June.

Two bored kids (this was way before iPads), one rainy day (we’ve all had a few of those), and one crazy cat wearing a red-striped hat (where was the background check for that babysitter?).

In 1957, Dr Seuss used only 200 words to write his classic tale. More than 50 years later, it’s still a much-loved children’s phenomenon.

The play was adapted for the stage in 2009 by the National Theatre of Britain. 

The Cat In The Hat interrupts this rainy afternoon with his unexpected visit to Sally and her brother’s cosy home. Their outspoken and outraged pet, Fish, is astounded and concerned, but this cat will not be deterred. He will teach us all to make our own fun with nothing but a little imagination. 

“It’s fun to have fun, but you have to know how”. 

Along with Thing One and Thing Two, the cat will fill the theatre with mischievous humour and madcap style.

Young and old alike will delight in this lively adaptation of a classic book coming to life before your very eyes. 

Spoiler alert: Things run amok, and quickly!

VENUE: The Events Centre, Caloundra

DATE and TIME: Friday 30 June at 10:30am and 1pm

TICKETS: From $30

BOOKINGS: Call 07 5491 4240 or visit theeventscentre.com.au
