WE'RE GOING ON A BEAR HUNT is the wonderful story of a family out for a walk and on the lookout for a growling bear. They have to march through long swishy grass, wade through thick gloopy mud, and even battle a snow storm before entering a big dark cave where maybe they will finally spot the glinty wet eyes of a slobbering, gigantic bear winking at them through the blackness. This 55 minute mini-musical captures the fun and frolics of a father who is clearly still a child at heart, his three children including a tiny intrepid bear hunter in the making - baby is strapped to dad's back plus the family dog and of course...a BIG BROWN CUDDLY BEAR! Come in your pyjamas, dressing gowns and slippers for extra fun. Adults too! "It is delicious to hear the crowd squeal....wholesome cheeky fun for young families" - The Melbourne Herald Sun Most suitable for families with children ages 2 years - 8 years. Please note a ticket must be purchased for any child over the age of 2 years. #forgetheatre #weregoingonabearhunt
