Room on the Broom

Room on the Broom, adapted from the much-loved picture book by Julia Donaldson & Axel Scheffler, will cast a spell on young audiences when it flies in to QUT Gardens Theatre from September 22-24, 2023.

Brought to you by the award-winning team behind The Gruffalo’s Child and The 91-Storey Treehouse, Room on the Broom brings together physical theatre, music and beautiful puppetry on stage.

The beloved story goes that the witch and her cat are flying happily on their broomstick – until a stormy wind blows away the witch’s hat, bow and wand. A helpful dog, bird and frog find the witch’s lost things, and they all hop on the broom for a ride. But this broomstick’s not meant for five and - CRACK - the broom snaps in two. When a hungry dragon appears, who will save the poor witch? And will there ever be room on the broom for everyone?

With songs, laughs and scary fun, Room on the Broom is a story about friendship, sharing and working together, ideal  for children aged 3 and up – and their grown-ups.

“A truly theatrical feast that leaves both adults and children fully entertained. Five stars"  The List
