Adelaide Fringe 2012: City farm (theatre) for school groups and families

“Great family-friendly theatre, inspired by pop-up books and comics. A breath of fresh air. 4 stars.” – The Advertiser 

It is 2030 and the air is different. Humans are wealthy and celebrating their indulgent lifestyles, but the natural world is suffering. Technology has allowed for most things to be replaced electronically. But can we replace everything? Grass, flowers, trees, wind, sun… Earth?

City farm followed the journey of Jed and Melaleuca, a farmer and his tree.
