OUTER METRO SCHOOLS TOUR
2025 Outer Metro Schools Touring Program
Spare Parts Puppet Theatre is excited to announce the 2025 Go For 2&5 Regional Schools Tour of Pillow Fight. Our highly engaging theatre incursion will ignite the imagination of your students and deliver learning outcomes across the curriculum.
This is the epic tale of an argument with two sides and three truths, all sparked by the fateful discovery of Great Grandma’s broken biscuit barrel.
Step into the childhood bedroom of two siblings, locked in a battle to discover the truth.
The bunk beds become portals to fantastical worlds and the war rages on with unrelenting hilarity to prove exactly what did happen that awful day when Great Grandma’s biscuit barrel met its fractured fate.
