Adapted from the book by Mem Fox

Set in the old people’s home next door to where Wilfrid lives, this fun and heart-warming story follows his affectionate bond with his favourite old person, the 96-year-old Miss Nancy. Your students will be captivated by the engaging and interactive performance style, with five members from the audience becoming part of the cast. Wilfrid and Miss Nancy, both beautifully hand-crafted life-size puppets, come to life through the magical touch of our expert puppeteers, winning the hearts of young and old.

Exploring the power of objects as vessels of memory and memories as the threads that connect us to each other, this story is a true celebration of intergenerational friendship that will bring laughter, inspire joy and leave ripples of connectedness with your students long after the performance.

Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge is one of Mem Fox’s most popular stories and is treasured by generations of Australians.
