A Bee Story
Queen Bee and Worker Bee must work together to rebuild their hive after it’s destroyed by a bushfire, but things never quite go to plan…
This enchanting production combines circus, theatre, dance, live music, and acrobatics to bring the story vividly to life. Celebrating collaboration, resilience, and care for the environment, it inspires empathy, creativity, and a deeper connection to the natural world.
As an accompaniment to the show, A Bee Story was written by Maria McRae and Elizabeth McRae, with illustrations by Maisie Oatz.
