The team behind the popular kids shows The 13-, 26-, 52-, 78- and 91-Storey Treehouses and Billionaire Boy will bring David Walliams' bestselling book The Midnight Gang to life on stage at the Pilbeam Theatre in May.
The Midnight Gang is a celebration of friendship, love and the power of the imagination, aimed at children aged 6+ and their families.
Twelve year old Tom unexpectedly finds himself lonely and lost in the children's ward of St Crook's Hospital, away from his family and at the mercy of evil Matron. Tom feels like he'll never leave, but his fellow young patients have other ideas.
They might be stuck in hospital, but their imaginations can take them anywhere as The Midnight Gang. Each night when the clock strikes midnight, The Midnight Gang go on a series of amazing journeys as they turn the hospital into the places they've always wanted to go and make dreams come true.
The show is full of high energy performances.
The play, written my Maryam Master is based on the bestselling novel by David Walliams. It is produced by CDP Kids, and presented by Rockhampton Regional Council.
This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.
The Midnight Gang will be performed at the Pilbeam Theatre on at 6.30pm on Tuesday 25 and Wednesday 26 May at 10am and 12 midday. Tickets are $19 for adults and $15 for children. School group discounts are available for the Wednesday matinees.
